Mr. Kimball,
Dear Sir,
Some friends of mine are here from Conn. and I want to go to Arlington with them next Saturday (the 7,) but as we cannot very well walk [[multiple strikethroughs]]it[[/multiple strikthroughs]] would it be presuming for me to ask if we could have the use of an ambulance for the [[multiple underlines]]journey[[/multiple underlines]]? 
Perhaps it is out of place for me, an A.T., to ask such a favor if so please [[?]] me.  if not and it can be granted I shall feel greatly obliged.
Very Respectfull,
Rebecca H. Elwell.
