Maude writes Addams to offer Hull-House a donation of fifty pounds from the Resurrection Fund Committee in thanks to Mary Rozet Smith for helping them earlier.
Addams asks Blaine for her annual Hull-House donation, so that they may cover costs of Christmas refreshments and invites her to hear a talk on glass factory work.
Addams thanks Blaine for the flowers, describing the staff of Hull-House as battered and worn from the holidays. Addams sends Blaine a silver box made by the boys in the shop.
