| Transcript | [no envelope] S. Woodslee 12/14/92 Dear cousin Bella. Belle is sending you and William a trifle and wished me to write a note to send along; she has painted a hat band for William, I do not know if they use them over there but nearly all the gentlemen here have them in their hats. As she was sending that to William she thought she would send you a card, I only wish it were nicer, and that we had something to send you all, but we have not just now. James wrote you the other night, suppose he told you that I am going to college again after Christmas There was something he forgot to tell you, or rather to tell Uncle. we had a Mr Ballantyne from Philadelphia to see us last September he is a [Page 2] full cousin of Father's and uncles. Jim was saying yesterday he had intended to tell you in every letter since but always forgot so I thought I would tell you about it. I will not give any particulars of his visit as Father will be better able to do that when he writes. We all join in sending our love, and may you all have a merry Xmas and a happy happy New Year. Ever your loving cousin Cassie Smyth Transcribed by Greg Floyd |
