I know she will understand and forgive my not writing separately to her! I am sending you something that I feel sure you will like to have. Viz this quaint little old brooch, or stock fastener with the profile of our great-grandfather Captain James Alms in his naval cocked hat and pigtail, on ivory. Perhaps "Betsy" wore it in his memory! Dear father gave it to me many years ago - I think it came through Gen. J E D Hill as well as I can recall, and I think it's his writing on the paper attached to the brooch. Anyway it is an interesting family relic."
