tractive sea shore resorts near New York close. Manhattan Beach and Brighton Beach both the upper and tony end of Coney Island draw thousands of people every night to enjoy the delicious [evil?] down the Bay for an hour, delight in the cool braceing air, sit on the comfortable seats, an the grounds of the hotel, right close to the beach, and listen to most delicious music from the military band, that plays at short intervals, all through the evening; and all this comfort and pleasure, for fifty cents, the round trip. The Theatres will not play, until cool weather comes, and these other amusements are abandoned. If we are obliged to return home, we will telegraph you at once. With much love from Fred and myself and kisses from both of us. Ever your aff wife. Julia,
