Solution

The given sentence is in direct speech and we need to convert it to indirect speech. When we change a direct speech to an indirect speech, we must follow these rules: The reporting verb "told" is changed to "requested" in the indirect speech. The inverted commas ("...") are removed to show the indirect speech part. The comma (,) is removed in the indirect speech. The question mark (?) is omitted in the indirect speech. The first word of the indirect speech should be in capital letters. The first person pronoun "me" changed to the third person pronoun "her" in the indirect speech.
