"The supper table of broad mahogany, covered with the sweetest and finest of linen, the heavy cut glass.. china of the daintiest and most delicate white and gold. The silver was solid and plain and always bright... I must not forget to mention the great bowls of cut glass filled with delicious strawberries, raspberries, and peaces and cream, and the two beautiful cut glass pitchers filled with such milk that used to decorate the corners of the table."
