notes
"Holograph, signed with initials. Edmund Quincy is sending Caroline Weston the \"Voice from the Jail.\" In this letter, Quincy refers to the \"Lays.\" [This is probably a reference to Macaulay's Lays of Ancient Rome, which appeared in 1842.] Edmund Quincy states that \"Bro[ther] May's story of the 'Cannary bird' will no longer be regarded as a figment of an excited imagination.\""
