"Holograph, signed. Deborah Weston writes this letter to Anne Warren Weston in \"journal fashion.\" She longs to have the Grimke letters. She comments: \"I can hardly conceive of their having fallen from grace.\" She quotes and comments on a remark in the new paper [the Massachusetts Abolitionist]. Deborah describes with critical comments, several people whom she has met socially. She regrets not having seen John A. Collins, \"for I love Collins.\" Deborah does not have much hope that Caroline Weston will come to New Bedford. She quotes a dialogue from Pickwick, as applicable to Caroline's case in regard to New Bedford. She repeats a reported conversation between James Congdon and Alanson St. Clair in which J.C. discouraged the latter and Henry Brewster Stanton from lecturing in New Bedford. Deborah exclaims on the villainy of Taunton. \"I wish you had [Gilbert H.?] Durfee's eyes out.\" Deborah improved her time faithfully, studying and always up till midnight."
