Dear Mister Challenge,

I find myself intrigued by your description of yourself.  Such honesty and circumspection are to be lauded in any man, true or not. 

I am a young lady of 21, and independent means.  I seek a partner in life for the happiness that such a companionship and relations of love may bring, not out of any particular need to marry.  I say this, for I am an orphan, having lost both my parents by age 18, their passing might have robbed me of parental guidance in matters of matrimony but have left me comfortably appointed in matters of finance. 

While I am unsure as to whether my general interest in books- fiction and non fiction alike, may not meet your particular standards I would like to know you better.  Perhaps intrigue is a better start to ones acquaintance than flowery words and false modesty.

I look forward to perhaps corresponding with you again. 
Kindest Regards
Miss Up For A Challenge.
