Dedham, [Mass.]
Description
Holograph, signed
Edmund Quincy says that the Dedham Female Anti-Slavery Society voted to transfer "their auxiliaryship to the M. F. E. Soc. [Massachusetts Female Emancipation Society]." The minority that has withdrawn is considering what course to take. Edmund Quincy considers it "all important" that Caroline Weston should be present at their meeting to help them, "for their ignorance of business is extraordinary." Edmund Quincy wants Caroline Weston to come Friday evening and stay at his house through Sunday. He is glad to hear of Henry G. Chapman's convalescence. He recommends a hobby "in the domain of Graham," which he considers as requiring vegetarianism to perfect it. In connection with his visit to Lynn, Edmund Quincy comments on "the double-faced & double-named Manford alias Colman." [Dr. Manford, alias John Colman, see William Lloyd Garrison, Vol. II, note 348.] Edmund Quincy describes a Whig celebration at Dedham in which ladies walked in a procession. Edmund Quincy remarks that "the 'sphere of woman' must be made of caoutchouc of the most elastic description."
