Anyone care to help decipher this letter from Eliza?

I've got this far .::

? July 1

Dear Sirs

Excuse my writing but thought it necessary to enquire if the agreement is ready to be signed, under circumstances should like to ? ? ??

I am ?

Yours truly

Eliza ? Self (?)

??

@AnotherSpare thank you, and think that's it for sure

Are you the same poster who shared the letter from grandfather to grandson the other day? I LOVE that you have changed your name to Old Trot 😂

@AnotherSpare yes!!! That me! I'll probably name change to Eliza Self next for my next share 😀

I just LOVE Old Trot. It's so funny

Just picturing some knackered old faithful dog with a stick in his mouth.

Equally, could be some old major from the civil war. Who knows?!

Love the new user name!

(Nothing to add to the deciphering!)
