Rohan, Ellen D., Norfolk, Virginia, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1869 May 27

 Item
Identifier: CMMA I-1-n

Scope and Contents

She has just received Major Keiley's letter, requesting that a box of flowers be sent McMaster for the procession of the Blessed Sacrament on Sunday morning. The last boat to New York had already left, so she packed a basket of flowers, wrapped in cotton and wet moss, and sent it off by Adams express. She has arranged to have McMaster notified as soon as they arrive, though she fears they will be wilted. She returns McMaster's note for ten dollars, assuring him that she is happy to do this favor, and requesting that when he needs more flowers that he ask, without insulting her with the sight of greenbacks. :: I-1-n A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
