Richmond, April 10th 1863

Excuse my apparent

silence dear Hattie upon the

receipt [?] [?] much prized

[?], but I left for the

country just after receiving your

letter. I had an engagement

with a young lady to go to visit

a friend of ours living at Old

Church (Hanover) and expected

to be absent so short a time. I de

termined especially as mail

only came once during our visit to wait

until on my return. I saw with

my own eyes our [long desired?]

skirts. They are so pretty and so nice

we are perfectly charmed. It was

so very kind in Mrs. Tucker

but I will [?] my thanks to her

I shall go to Mother's [?] if there

is nothing I could find that
