Manuscript letter

Archives Number: 1011/002.001-027#001

Dear Harriot,
I send back the silver all right with many thanks and in your cap box a handkerchief which by the initials I know to be Mary Warren’s. Hatty can give it to her.
I hope you & papa & Hatty are none the worse for your expedition into the cold & that the latter enjoyed the party as much as I did. So much young [p. 2] blood poured into this old house seemed to make it renew its youth & thrill with an unaccustomed glow. I trust no colds will make the dancers regret their Cambridge visit. I was greatly annoyed by the gas accident but am thankful cheerfulness was restored.
Love to all
Ys afftly
Fanny E.L.

[p. 3] Some one left a fur tippet & cuffs. If you hear of the owner please let me know.
