SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Sir or Madam,
My name is ABC, one of your newspaper members from 2014 with membership ID: W53647. I read a very astonishing article in your yesterday morning, 23/08/2019, newspaper.
It captivated my eyes as I saw the picture of my childhood friend, Raj, on the front page under the title of “Childhood period”. Therefore, I am writing to seek your help for seeing my friend with whom I lost my connections around 12 years ago.
Let me give you a background of our friendship. In 2005, Jeremy came to our neighbourhood and soon after that we became close friends. We played every day together after school in the yard of our house. It was until 2007 when his father, who was working as an engineer, got a job in Arizona and they moved away. Since that time I had no contact with him and I missed him.
I hope you can help me to establish contact with him again. For this, I give my cell phone number which is 12746378 to you. Please, kindly give it to him as I know due to confidentiality you may not share his contacts with me.
I look forward to hearing from you as soon as you gave him my contact information.
Yours faithfully,
