Rev. S. Morais
Dear Sir
This little offering (which has been worked by my own hands) is but a very small token of the respect and regard which the donor entertains for yourself: yet may not hope that its usefulness will compensate for the insignificance of the gift, and that when placing your pen between the
muslin folds, these may recall to your mind a youthful but sincere friend.
Wishing that every happiness attendant upon this joyful season may be yours for many years to come,
I am, dear sir,
With sentiments of esteem,
Very sincerely yours,
Mary M. Cohen
1828 Rittenhouse Square.
Purim 5633.
My dear friend
The work is as ingenious as it is useful, but the thought which directed the hand is lovely. "I thank you" sounds so cold and formal, that I will not say it. But this acknowledgment I will make in all sincerity. Among the few, upon whom I look with feelings akin to parental affection your dear self stands foremost. Hence, any token of friendship, evincing a reciprocation of sentiments, occasions a gratification more deeply experienced than adequately expressed. That this virtual regard may never alter, and that you may live long and happy amidst your beautiful surroundings is the wish of
Yours very truly
S. Morais
