Providence has blessed my endeavours to secure a competency; and as I am unmarried and childless, I wish to adopt her during my life, and bequeath her at my death whatever I may have to leave.--I am, Madam, &c., &c.,
La Providencia ha favorecido mi trabajo y, como soy soltero y sin hijos, me propongo adoptar a mi sobrina y cederla a mi muerte cuanto poseo.
