Description

Chistine Biddle wrote to Susan Ursin Niemcewicz, addressed to Elizabeth Town, NJ and forwarded by Maria P. Ricketts. Christine mentions that she told Peter Kean her family was looking for a new home. She was confined in town and send her family of children to the country during the month of August.
