Hudson, Michigan, May 1, 1896. My Dear Aunties: We were so glad to get your good letter last night, and very much rejoiced at the prospect of recovering Eva's long lost treasure - For there is no doubt that the toy you mention is the much prized and long-mourned "rattle" which Uncle William sent from Chicago to Eva when she was one week old. We could not have described it more accurately ourselves than you have, even to the "Mother Goose' figures.
