“Addy worked hard making deliveries for Mrs. Ford’s shop during the busy holiday season. To thank her for her help, Mrs. Ford gave her the gorgeous taffeta dress that Isabella Howell had outgrown! It’s trimmed with black satin bows and shiny buttons, and is tied with a lovely sash that ends in elegant fringe. Addy wore it with a bright green ribbon in her hair when she went to church on Christmas Day.” (Pleasant Company Catalogue, Holiday 1993)
