Transcription
October 4th 1876 Highfield My dear Papa, Yesterday we had the little tea-things and had tea out of them. Today it is very foggy so we cannot go out. I hope you and Mama are quite well. Are there many flowers in America? there are very few here. Do you know Dolly West? she came and spent the afternoon with us and we had great fun. This afternoon I am going out on Horace's pony to ride. Horace has a beautiful white cat called Sam and sometimes Toby chases him. Maurice and I send our love and many kisses from your loving child Gertrude
