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 S and C?. If Anna thinks she would such please let us know, also how much she would like. We might get some rather thin unclear 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 15c per y'd, cotton thread is higher, so is drilling.
