Dear Dr

We are planning an expedition for July-August and hope to collect samples both for you and for ourselves.
Again, I wish to express my regret.

Letter 2
Dear Professor... ,
I have just received your letter of May 12 requesting a contribution to Physical Review I am extremely grateful for your kind invitation. However, I am afraid I shall have to decline it, as only a small part of my work covers the subjects your journal deals with.
I express my regret once again.
Yours sincerely,

Letter 3
Dear Prof ...,
In reply to your letter of January 3, I regret very much to inform you that I cannot provide you with the reprint you asked me about. I do not have any extra copies. The only suggestion I can make is that you write directly to the Journal of Biological Chemistry. Perhaps they will be able to send you a copy.
Best wishes and regards,
Yours sincerely,
