My Dear Cyrus,

We are all getting on pretty much as usual—all quite well. Lily has entirely recovered from the effects of the warm weather …

I am busy just now getting a box of pictures ready for Philadelphia containing “The Ivory Carver,” quite large for Boker, also “Tarquin & Lucrece,” for Mr Tilden,—portraits of the Brownings for Mr Dreer, and a portrait of a Miss Colton. …
