notes: "Holograph. Caroline Weston went to Weymouth with Hervey Weston and Lizzy Chapman. Caroline comments that \"...little Anne was perfectly overjoyed to see us...\" She tells about the other Chapman children and the return trip to Roxbury. Edmund Quincy found that Samuel Philbrick wanted to hold the position of treasurer indefinitely. She criticizes the board of the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society for not acting firmly. She tells about the election of officers. [William M.] Chace was elected recording secretary. Quincy nominated Henry G. Chapman in place of Samuel Philbrick as treasurer. Samuel May, Jr., was chairman of the committee in charge of the Treasurer's Report. Caroline complains that Ellis Gray Loring did not exercise enough control over May and other associates. She describes a meeting at the State House."
