Miss Delaney,
Oh the fog is truly awful, really. It smells exceedingly dusty and has quite ruined any of my plans. I was supposed to be planning a ball for Percy but now I'm not sure if I should bother too much because who knows when it will be gone. And, I can't very well hold a ball in all of this nonsense. Maybe I'll just have to throw something together once it's cleared and simply surprise him.
And I will write to you as long as you write back. I could certainly use the distraction. My sister Cat has come to stay with us with her two children and I have a feeling there will be a lot of chaos within my home as well. Honestly, I'm not all that keen on it all.
How is London? This isn't the ideal first season for a lady from America. I'm quite sorry about that. Clearly, you'll have to convince that brother of yours to stay through next year's season!
Sincerely,
Miss Adlard
BEE-utiful Set!
