Healthful House

The carte de visite received that day, June 15, 189‒, by the director of the establishment of Healthful House was a very neat one, and simply bore, without escutcheon or coronet, the name:

Count d’Artigas.

Below this name, in a corner of the card, the following address was written in lead pencil:

“On board the schooner Ebba, anchored off New-Berne, Pamlico Sound.”
