Answer
The letter was written on a typewriter that has a problem with the top row of letters printing correctly. The letter should have read:
Dear Kevin,
I would like to complain about the top row of my typewriter.
These letters do not appear to be working correctly.
As you can see, they are missing from this document.
I would be very grateful if you could correct this problem immediately.
Kind regards.
Sam South.
