you recently attended a meeting at a hotel. When you return home, you found you had left some important papers at the hotel. Write a letter to the manager of the hotel. In your letter: * say where you think you left the papers * explain why they are so important * tell the manager what you want him/her to do

Dear Sir or Madam, I recently participated in a conference at your hotel and unfortunately, I inadvertently left some confidential paperwork behind. I believe I left a manila folder containing the documents in the conference room where the meeting took place. The name of the room escaped me, but it was adjacent to the main ballroom. I was seated in the front right corner. The papers are of great importance to me as they contain critical information related to an upcoming project that I am working on. They include a proposal and a plan that I have been working on for several weeks. Losing them would have a significant impact and would delay the project. I understand that finding lost items can be a difficult task, but I am writing to ask if you could please make every effort to locate the papers. If they are found, I would be exceptionally grateful if you could send them to me at the address provided. I apologize for any inconvenience
