"Holograph, signed with initials \"A.W.W.\" More than half of the third and fourth pages of letter have been torn off. Anne Warren Weston gives her impression of the men she saw in connection with the meeting in New York: \"Gerrit Smith is 'all my fancy painted him, he's lovely he's divine.' John Rankin of Ohio very charming. Beriah Green, ugly & clerical. Alvan Stewart deep as a well...\", etc. Anne's notes from the NY meeting amount to 23 pages. \"The part relating to the woman question is really very full & satisfactory.\" Gerrit Smith's speech in the Liberator is taken from the Anne Warren Weston's notes. \"Bro. [Brother Samuel J.] May ...is out of the fog\" and has urged Maria Weston Chapman to get out a new book as soon as possible.\" \"'Right and Wrong in Massachusetts' is now on the stocks.\" Mr. May wanted Caroline to take the Derby Academy at Hingham. Edmund Quincy called,\"looking miserably.\" He said that death looked lovely to him that \"entering upon another state of existence was what he anticipated with the deepest satisfaction.\" Wendell Phillips lectured on slavery at Cambridge to a full house."
