Miss Mary Ann Denham’s birthday. Twenty one years of age; Grandma gave a very hansome Chinese box, Mother a pair of Toilette Bottles and Julia a embroidery collar of her own working. I spent a very pleasant day, being very much pleased with my presents, only to think of being 21 is it not delightful?
