We went to Mr. Thomson's; returned, and danced at night. Mr. Turberville and Mr. Beal each made us all a present of a pound of Powder. I really have a great Affection for Mrs. Pinkard. She always chooses my head-dress, dresses my hair, and is the best Creature in lending you any thing. If you just say you want a thing, if she happens to have it, she will insist on your wearing it. Cousin Hannah has a quantity of Cloaths. She has put on every day since I have been here a different dress of muslin, and all handsome. Adieu, my best beloved. I have but little time to scribble, and that is only when we retire to dress. October 24. We were entertained last night in the usual way--dancing. We have just returned from taking a delightful walk. We went to the peach orchard and eat a great many fine peaches. They are seldom met with this time of the year. October 25. [Sidenote: _Lee Hall._ Residence of Richard Lee.] To-day we dine at _Lee Hall_--that is, at the Squire's. To-morrow we dine at _Bushfield_, with the _Pecatone_ Family. Adieu; I will write when I get there. I am at _Lee Hall_. Mrs. Lee is very polite. We found a Mrs. Ball here. She has the remains of a very pretty Woman, and appears to have a fixt melancholy on her countenance. I expect to see Nancy to-morrow at Bushfield--pray send I may. Mr. Beal and Mr. Pinkard are come. Adieu: I am called to supper. October 26. I have but one moment to tell you we are just going to set out for _Bushfield_. Mr. Turberville's Coach is waiting for us at the road. October 27. When we got here we found the House pretty full. Nancy was here. I had to dress in a great hurry for dinner. We spent the evening very agreeably in chatting. Milly Washington is a thousand times prettyer than I thought her at first, and very agreeable. About sunset, Nancy, Milly, and myself took a walk in the Garden [it is a most butifull place]. We were mighty busy cutting thistles to try our sweethearts, when Mr. Washington caught us; and you can't conceive how he plagued us--chased us all over the Garden, and was quite impertinent.
