Our school commenced two weeks ago Monday, and I was so glad! I
just love to study, and especially to have good lessons. My sister
and I went to a museum several weeks ago, and among the many
curious things we saw was Queen Anne's cat. It was indigo-color,
with brown spots on it, and looked as if it would like to tear you
to pieces; and there was also the earless white cat, which had a
tuft of hair in place of ears. It did not look very savage. There
was the mermaid, which had the body of a fish, and something which
resembled the head of a monkey. I had many beautiful flowers this
summer. I tried to raise some cotton, but did not succeed very
well. It did not ripen at all. I picked off the oldest ball there
was on the bush, and it was as green as grass. I would like to
exchange flower seeds for Florida beans or sea-beans, also for
foreign stamps, or sea-moss, or seeds for seeds, or will exchange
postmarks for flower seeds.
