Mrs. Howells was looking worn out. She had a great deal of company, and the day before had been to the depot with her sister, at 2 o clock in the morning. - We saw some nice plain brown ribbon for Sand & If Anna thinks she would such please let us know, also how much she would like. We might get some rather thin E? and 2/6. Did you receive the note and figs I sent with Mrs. Wm?? I have not been able to find any colored swan's down, but there is plenty white to be had for 4 per yard. If Jane likes I will get a whole yard of that. Cousin Mary thinks then there would be enough to put around Maggie's throat, and she says it would look very pretty. I have had Jane's pin mended. Direct your letters to cousin Thomas' care until I write again. I will probably be over hear Monday. I have been to the market several times but not to Uncle's yet. Write and tell me what errands you want done. Calico (merrimac) is 15 c per y'd, cotton thread is higher, so is drilling.
