VASSAR FEMALE COLLEGE
Tuesday Evening 1866
rMay 1 j
To Miss Mary L. Gilbert. Cor. Sec. of the Students of V.F.C.
My dear Madam
Words are impotent to express my feelings at
the doings at your College to honor my Birth-day yesterday - to
say that I was highly pleased would be a meagre reply - In truth
I now learn that the heart finds things which the power of language
cannot express, and those things occured yesterday - Please to
accept my thanks for your kindness - The scene of which will
never, no never, be obliterated from my Memory.
I remain Dear Miss G.
Yours truly &c. &c.
