come and bring them himself -

This is a glorious morning, and as pleasant
as it was gloomy last night - but it is
still quite cold -

Maj is just as, busy as he can be, and
so I have been all the morning, and expect to
be all the rest of the day -

I is so bright that we shall probably have
"lots" of people here to day -

I hope I shall have a long letter from
you tomorrow -

I arranged some exquisite shells of flowers
this morning -

I hat some Claytonias and other little
flowers in to press this morning -

In haste

calls now - though 'tis bad to leave
the Major all alone
