User-Contributed Transcription fine baby girl and that Mrs Parsons and Baby were doing quite nicely. Mary and I keep traveling all the time. although M. has suffered a good deal with her feet. she has a big blister under her big toe on her right foot. and it has broken. and the flesh is very tender. My feet stand it remarkably I have not been troubled at all with them paining me. Yester-day went over to N.Y. and saw a great deal which you can-not help seeing even if you just walk along the streets. went to see the N.Y. Post Office and the N.Y. Herald building. and then we went into Grace Church. which is a fine Church. all the windows are stained glass. and every one different. we sat in there a long time then walked out and went to Madison Square Garden. I suppose you both have been there. but of course it was a very interesting sight to me. then went into Hilton-Hughes. fine store. It was very nice to walk in the different departments. I liked the glass-ware, and Silver, and crockery. More than I did the dress-goods. they have all the new spring goods in the windows and new style straw-hats' and bonnets. we thought it very soon to begin to get summer goods' out now. In returning from N.Y. we walked across the Bridge and I enjoyed the walk very much. we were crossing between six and seven and M. says suppose Papa Mama could see us now. would not they laugh. as M. was obliged to sit and rest several times but I was sideways text at top anxious to cross at night as I had never been on after dark before and wanted to see it all lite up. I have told you all the news I can think of now. but if I was with you both I could talk very much longer. but will save it all untill I see you. I now close sending love to you both from Mary and myself.Cousin Lizziep.s.when you write please address my letter home. I think we will go home week after this.
