Аракин В.Д. Практический курс английского языка. 2 курс (7-е издание, 2008)

The Body of the Letter. A good letter should be clear, di­rect, coherent, dignified and courteous.
The Complimentary Close. Correct forms for business let­ters are:
Yours truly, Yours very truly, Very truly yours,
Respectfully yours, Faithfully yours. Sincerely yours,
Yours sincerely, Cordially yours.
The Signature. Some of the conventions should be ob­served: a) neither professional titles, nor academic degress should be used with a signature; b) an unmarried woman should sign herself as Miss Laura Blank, but she may place Miss in parentheses before her name if she feels that it is necessary for proper identification; c) a married woman or a widow signs her own name, not her married name. For ex­ample, Diana Holiday Brown is her own name; Mrs. George Brown is her married name,
Here is an example of a business letter:
Dear Miss Carnaby,
Allow me to enclose a contribution to your very deserv­ing Fund before it is finally wound up.
Yours very truly,
Hercule Poirot.
