you ought to taste how sweet it is and all the other things are good as good can be. Mary is surprised to see me eat pickles with such relish. i should not have been sorry if I had brought more. Mrs. Joe is much obliged for the butter. She is taking the smallest roll also. We are to have sweet potatoes to supper. We got a quart for 6 cts Saturday night and had some to breakfast with fresh fried fish Sunday morning. I had to eat dinner alone today as Mary did not get in till 2 1/2 PM and it is now almost 6 and supper waits her appearance. Tomorrow we expect to go to [unclear] of a course of Historical lectures. Mary had two season tickets given her. I wish Sarah or Anna could go with her instead of me. don't you? I got a good pair of rubbers for 25 cts, shall I send you some? How are they at Lewis’ and how are you all?
