Letter : to Mrs. Henry Middleton, Middleton Place, S.C., 1800 January 8.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/32144212

Letter from Mrs. Hering to her daughter, Mary Hering Middleton, referring to Mary Middleton's recent difficult voyage to Carolina, the malignant fever, the "abominable insects" of which she had apparently written, and the "uncouth" people on [Sullivan's] Island, "like your countrymen the West Indians." Mrs. Hering mentions the forthcoming marriages of two Middleton sisters-in-law (Septima Sexta and Anna Louisa Middleton), news of weddings at Bath, a ball at Tyson with descriptions of gowns, jewels, and coiffures. The letter also refers to her daughter's approaching period of confinement before the birth of her son, John Izard Middleton (who was born on February 4, 1800).
