Monday night. [n.d.]
Dear Capt McDonald
I find I made a mistake, Papa bought the little houses, and as there is nothing left that the children had made I am obliged to tell you of my inability to execute even a fraction of yr. commissions! But I know you will not be sorry to hear this.
Give my love to Mrs. McDonald, who I hope is a great deal better even without her Mother 's arrival.
Yours sincerely,
Agnes Lee
