Dear Mr.Johnson,

Hope you are fine. I am educated as a lawyer. I have never received any formal training and most of the knowledge I got was through self-study by books and the experience I earned though the ups and downs of my life (Peterson 16).

Thank you very much.

Sincerely,

Abraham Lincoln.
