A few favorite quotes from the letters:

"I will not say that your Mulberry trees are dead, but I am afraid they are not alive."

"What dreadful Hot weather we have! – It keeps one in a continual state of Inelegance."

"So much for that subject; I now come to another, of a very different nature, as other subjects are very apt to be."

"Where shall I begin? Which of all my important nothings shall I tell you first?"
