Description
Holograph
Maria Weston Chapman begins the letter with a discussion of some silks obtained from Edward Davis. She goes on to enumerate her callers and their missions, including Mrs. Fifield, the Southwicks, etc. She tells about Warren Weston's kindness to a boy named Howe on a voyage to Canton. She mentions Mrs. Hester Dana, who wanted to hire a colored boy, and comments on would-be abolitionists. She criticizes Caroline Weston's mode of sealing her letters. Maria W. Chapman wrote to [Thomas] Clarkson. She tells of Hervey Weston's ambition to become a doctor, with the aid of Joshua Bates. John Lountain(?), a black man, is raising money to buy his wife
