Cousin Your beautiful and welcome present came duly to hand on? yesterday. It so happened that Mrs. Ryland, Mrs. Wallace,

graceful ferns. I thank you most kindly for your recollection of me. I must see your good husband. I hope your wedded life
may be happy and loving? . When you come to the city be sure to call and see me, and bring the new member of the family with
you. My love to your Father, Mother, and Husband. Yours truly Peter H. Burnett.
