The first few pages of the novel reveals that Dr. Montague wrote a very deliberate letter seeking assistants for his stay at Hill House. Your job is to recreate that letter. Use the text to inform your understanding of the rhetorical situation, the message, the tone, etc. Then, provide a companion reflective paragraph in which you discuss your rhetorical choices.
Please note that this calls for a particular genre, the formal business letter. When asked to use a particular genre, do your research! It takes only a few seconds to find an example of the format for a formal business letter. Check out Purdue’s OWL example here: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/653/01/
