My dear Mother,
My dear Mother,

I dont care about hemming them the same. Perhaps the skirt had better be delaine or something so, that I might wear it with any sack. I do not think I shall need more than one sack at present, as I can make my pink one serve if I only had a skirt. I guess the sack had better be lined all through. I wish you would

My dear Mother,

  I think I shall need some new bed dresses soon; those that I have are beginning to look quite faded and old, and besides, they got dirty so soon, I can hardly wear them one week without being ashamed of them. The blue one in particular, looks quite bad. You said, when you wrote, that you did not get me any in Utica, and I have thought since, that perhaps I had better have a calico sack, not such as I wear now, but a short one something like my pink one, and a loose skirt to wear with it, as I spoke of when you were here. I dont care about hemming them the same. Perhaps the skirt had better be delaine or something so, that I might wear it with any sack. I do not think I shall need more than one sack at present, as I can make my pink one serve if I only had a skirt. I guess the sack had better be lined all through. I wish you would
