I see that some little girls write to you. I want to say something about my little cousin Julia Ann, who lives in Petersham, Mass. I think she does not take your Museum. I wish she should; and my father says I may send it to her, and as she is a _new_ subscriber, you say she may have the three bound volumes too, for $3.00, and when she sends for them by any of her friends, you will let her have them. Send the numbers for 1844, by mail, to Petersham. You write a great many stories. I wish you would come to Georgia, and write us a good story about the Stone Mountain, which is in the county of Decatur, in which we live. It is a lone, solitary rock. Father says it is eight hundred feet high, and that there was once a wall near the top of it. Some think the famous Spanish adventurer, De Soto, made it a long, long time ago. Some men built a tower on the top of it, one hundred and sixty feet high, but it was blown down in a storm last year. It is not a good place to stay on the rock, for there is no water, nor any way to get it, but by carrying it up. Some who have visited the Stone Mountain say it is second to no curiosity except the Falls of Niagara. Hoping for more stories and plenty of pictures, I am your young friend, S. M. W. ―――― _Quincy, Feb. 29th, 1844._ MR. MERRY: DEAR SIR,――I would be greatly obliged to you if you will be so kind as to publish the following enigma in the Museum for April or May, as you choose.
