Item Information

Place of origin:
Poplar St., [Boston]
Language:
English
Notes:
Holograph, signed with initials.
Anne Warren Weston describes the state of her health (a cold, headache), church attendance, Garrison's lecture that was like "live coals," and a gathering that discussed magnetism. Lord Morpeth wrote to C. Sumner asking to have his thanks conveyed to Mrs. Maria W. Chapman: "I did not clearly learn whether it was for the [Liberty] Bell or the Sonnet." [Morpeth may have been giving his thanks for the poem, entitled: "Impromtu. To Viscount Morpeth." By Mrs. Maria W. Chapman.] Anne would have expected him to write directly, but is willing "to handle him softly," as Garrison gave him a slap in his lecture. Mrs. Chapman heard from the Rochester ladies, who made $312. Dr. Farnsworth, now abroad, will call on Joshua Bates as soon as he has seen his tailor, bootmaker, etc. H. C. Wright is working with the Corn Law League.
