Jany 1st 1887

My dear Mrs Stanford

Mrs Grant desires
me to express her thanks
to you, for the beautiful
floral piece which she
will hasten to place
in the tomb of General
Grant. It reached her
safely and she deeply
feels and appreciates

still, to go to Washington during Lent
for a few days with Mrs Beale, where
it will do her great good to see you
and her other friends there.

Wishing you a "Happy New Year" I am
very sincerely your friend
Ida Honore Grant

Mrs Stanford
