User-Contributed Transcription Jaunty leghorn hat, brown velevet, + pink rose, awfully pretty.Cravates of crepe de chine, with tasels, all delicate colors.White silk; cane, parasol.Blue faille silk, of a lovely French blue, all trimmed with delicate blue lace. A tall white ship hat, very high like a helmet; with blue to match, blut feathers, + two little parrots wings very chic.Pink silk, with white gaze de camberie over-dress; the tunic long, garnie de fringe + a most exquisite waist; overt en coeur. A walking dress of some curious indian stuff, light brown, with fringe, over a magnificent cerise faille petticoat. These last three have just arrived from Paris + were sent by "Pingat." + of course are as stunning as they can be. Then Julie Tillons sent us another box, in which for me there were two white nansook dresses, + a white muslin over dress, trimmed with blue ribbon under the puffings. A white muslin trimd with valenciennes, over pink silk, + a stunning white piquee, made with a very long over skirt, + lots of insertion + "landes de saxe."
