William Bull and Sarah Wells Stone House AssociationScope and Content
Susan's bunches of grapes, were there
immense baskets of peaches whose
rosy cheeks vied in beauty with the
rosy cheeked maidens who brought them
Then there were high piles of bread
& biscuit kneaded by the white
hands of Sarah's great great great
granddaughters. These showed the
skill & energy of our fair sisters
& cousins for certainly a Good
woman & true, whatever rights
she may be deprived of, ought
not, nay cannot be bereft of
the right to make good bread.
Gods blessing having been asked upon the
meal, its consumption was greatly
enjoyed, innocent mirth, much
merriment & joyful gayety abounded.
After dinner papers were read by
different persons, that of our honored
Treasurer (T.S. Sheldon Esq) was
very interesting. Sweet-
singing, loving communion was enjoyed
