Abstract:
Writing to her aunt regarding a batch of silk they had dyed by a local woman for use in producing women's clothing. Portions of silk mislaid while some sections "would not take the same colour," and the woman offers to dye another batch at no additional charge. "… if for a cape it is likely you would rather do without it, than incur the expense of getting new, & even there would be considerable difficulty in matching it. If there is just sufficient to make the dress without cape, you will have to use it, or procure new." News of family health and their treatment by physicians.
