Transcript or Index
Dear Aunt
Mama is not at home, she came by the 9 o'clock Greenwich Stage and therefore did not arrive in Town till ten. I have had a note from her this morning and she says that she shall dine out today & will not be home till after I am in bed. We should have called today only that it was very wet and Papa wanted James in the City. Give all our loves to Grand Papa, Mama and yourself. I remain your affectionate Niece M.A. Kay.
