Dearest Mummie & Grandma:

Got your letters just as I had mailed one to you. How nice of you, Grandma, to offer to make me some portieres. I shall be delighted to have them and I will rustle around immediately and collect silk things to send you. Max has a number of old neckties to contribute and Margaret has promised me some things. I shall probably get quite a quantity of silk from my neighbors. I think that I have nothing of my own to send except my old blue silk dress and a few ribbons.

Max and I are so pleased with our new or rather old home and are enjoying so much fixing it up and arranging and rearranging things. There are a few more pictures to be unpacked and hung and the lace curtains are still to be laundered and put up, but aside from those
