yours truly

Recorded in the late 1700s as a closing in a letter. Since the mid-1800s for "I", "me", or "myself".

• "This one was created by yours truly."
• "Miss Lydgate, Miss de Vine, little Chilperic and yours truly were bridesmaids, with the Warden to give the bride away."
• "Nobody in Africa, but yours truly, can get a good head of steam on the old African Queen."
• "Vera introduced us, and Boris was interested to hear I was a masseur. He mentioned that he had gotten a massage several times a week when he was in Hollywood—so, before you could say “Bob’s your uncle and Fanny’s your aunt,” yours truly offered the man who had made more people shiver and shake than any man alive a massage on the house."
