Letter summary:
Apologising for not writing sooner, but has been very busy. Mrs. Haugh has bought her two new bonnets one for the garden and the other for Sundays. Her brother Frederick has not answered her last letter and she asks her mother to send her love and to remind him to write. Hopes the house is now finished and that the new servants suit her mother better. Expects there has been plenty of company in York because of the May races. Her own vacation starts on the 21st. June.
