Dear Em -
I sendt [sic] Mr Hoffman / my Accordian he promised if I lent / it to him, that he would learn to / play a tune on it. I have not / seen you since my soiree. /
I am very much afraid / these parties will be the ruin of / me. I am engaged this Eve’g and / to morrow Ene’g and then I intend / to stay at home and allez coucher / a bonne heure for I shall lose / my red cheeks. Come and see me /
Soon. Yours Mary
