Dear Madam,

I am writing in answer to your advertisement in “The Lady“.

I am requiring an educated girl to help look after my two little girls aged 4 ¾ and 3 years. My husband is a doctor (of medicine) and we live 3 miles from Scarborough.

If you came here, you would be treated as a member of the family and only given light household duties, as I keep a maid.

You would receive plenty of leisure – There are of course facilities for tennis, bathing, dancing etc.

You would soon improve your English as I have helped foreign girls before. I should be glad if you could speak a little German to my two children as they have learned a few words.

Will you let me know furhter particulars about yourself, what pocket money you require & when you can come here?

Scarborough is five hours from London.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Yours faithfully,

(Mrs.) R. D. Andrade-Thompson

Nach Dr. Andrade-Thompson wurde in Newby-Scalby sogar eine Straße benannt.
