To Whom it May Concern /Dear Mr. Gao,
The bearer of this letter, Mr. Lee Graham, has for several years been interested in organizing camps for boys who can afford to spend only a small amount on their summer vacation. This summer our school has employed him to do this work for our students. As he is considering locations for camps in Grass Mountain, I suggested that you were the man to help him, for you know every corner of the place.
I shall be happy if you can help Mr, Graham in any way. He is a fine man and has a most worthwhile② job on his hands.
Yours ever truly,

【写法指要】
介绍信（letters of introduction）是使写信人认识的人同另一人或多人相识的信件。可分私人介绍信和公务介绍信两种。私人介绍信是写信人向自己的亲友介绍第三者，语气比较随便，格式也不讲究。公务介绍信则是写信人因公把自已的同事、同学或业务关系人介绍给某单位或个人。这种介绍信语言和格式比较规范、严谨。私人介绍信的称呼可用对方的姓名，如我们选的这封信中的Mr．Gao；公务介绍信称呼或不知姓名者用To Whom it May Concern，相当于汉语的“谨启者”或“……（单位）负责同志”。
介绍信常用语句有：
①May I take the liberty of asking you to…?
②Please favour me with an early reply.
③Will you please greatly oblige me by…?
④May I request your kindness to do a few things for me?
⑤I hope you will put the matter in your mind.
