Anne Warren Weston and Lucia Weston have been busy writing the Anti-Slavery Bazaar Report. Anne was taken sick with "sudden chills." She had trouble getting to a meeting. She complains of Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe's failure to thank her for the bronze statuette. Mr. Beecher Stowe, as S. May Jr. calls him, came to the office with a daguerreotype of Mrs. Stowe and the preface to the French edition of her book for Madame Belloc. Mrs. Stowe "means to be very careful how she mixes up herself with the Old orgs." She describes the annual meeting of the American Anti-Slavery Society. She met S. H. Gay. She gives a partial description of Lucia Weston's symptoms and illness.
