<html>a stranger would have noticed my
agitation : All seemed a dream till I
heard myself addressed as Mrs Thomason;
& that only startled me for a few mo-
ments : for even now, when I have been
married nearly three months, I find it
hard to realize the fact, & often indulge
in childish frolics & bursts of girlish mer-
riment (very unbecoming to a married
woman, some would say) but [?] T___
gives me no chance to be sober "
Enough of my little self though, & let me
[inquire?] about your own dear, sweet
self : What are your doings, how spending
your time &c &c? & by the by what has be-
come of the poor fellow you treated so
shabbily some time since? I must ac-
knowledge you surprised me no little by
the news of your engagement & your sub-
sequent dismissal of the unfortunate young
[Marginalia – cross-written on page]
gent, but I was truly glad to know that the affair was at and end "
not because I am unwilling for you to marry, but because I know
you would not have been happy unless you had loved far more
devotedly than you did " Now as soon as some one wins your
heart, who is altogether worth of the sacred [trust?] committed
to his keeping, no one will be more pleased & will rejoice more
greatly in your happiness than your own little Pet! but I do
not know where in all the world, one will be found worthy of such
a trust : What were the objections to the gentleman above referred
to? Is that an impertinent question? if so don't answer it :
Mr Thomason says, [if?] you knew how very fond he is of sweet kisses
you would not have sent him one conditionally: In conclusion
Sister mine, let me waft you the sweetest of sweet kisses wishing with all
my heart that I had your dear face closely imprisoned in my hands
& could imprint upon your lips just as many kisses as I wish :
Ever Love,
Your little Pet
