My dear Mother
Can Miranda
Unknown
sew? I find Eliza
Certainty: Probable
has considerable spare
time & it would be
very convenient to have
someone who could
sew nicely.
You will see by the
papers that Fred
Birth: 1830-07-08 Death: 1915-04-25
went to New York to meet
Prince Napoleon
Birth: 1822-09-09 Death: 1891-03-17
. He returned yesterday
morning. The Prince
and suite come tomor-
row, & stay with Mr
Mercier
Birth: 1816-09-24 Death: 1886-10-16
. He wishes to travel quietly & will
declines all public
receptions. The Princess
Birth: 1843-03-02 Death: 1911-06-25
remains in New York.
We give him a dinner
on Monday.
We are all well,
notwithstanding three
very hot days.
Affectionately
Your daughter
Anna.
