Home, Dec. 10, 1868. Dear Sisters The enclosed letter from Annie was received day before yesterday and ought to have been sent yesterday but I neglected hoping to be able to see Ann Roberts and so tell something more definitely about the trimming for my dress but it has been storming so all the week that I've not been down to the village and if you too have had such a storm you could not have gone out trading. Miss R. said I should want 4 yds of trimming and 8 buttons (or perhaps I had better get 12 if they are something that will be likely to wear off) - you cannot of course get these to send
