Letter from Harriet Lane to Lily Macalester
Description
Letter from Harriet Lane to Lily Macalester chatting about their male acquaintances Mandeville, Schell, Charles Wister, Dayton, Pringle, Blondeel, Bernard Barton and Captain Lee; expressing approval of Lily’s admirer Berghmans, and wondering, “What possessed Korty with the idea I had ‘grown stout.’” She also mentions President Buchanan, Ellen Wilson and Harriet, as well as "The Mill on the Floss," bracelets, rowing, and strawberries.
[Two dates written in later hands are 1855, 1860. Since James Buchanan was not in The White House in 1855 and "The Mill on the Floss" was published in 1860, the second date was chosen.] Photocopy; the original is in the library of Mount Vernon Ladies Association. Executive Mansion. 17 June, [1855] or [1860]
