"Holograph, signed. Lucretia Ann Cowing asks Deborah Weston not to write such mournful letters, as she is homesick enough. Lucretia A. Cowing will try to remain here until October and then come home for good. She hears the abolitionists \"railed upon almost every day.\" A great friend of Lucretia A. Cowing thought it \"a pity that they were not all strung up.\" Lucretia A. Cowing is quite a favorite with some who abuse the abolitionists most, and it is perhaps fear of losing their good opinion that prevents her from telling them that she is also one. It is doubtful whether her telling would do any good, and she might be sent home. Lucretia A. Cowing has been given what she has long wished for---the poems of Mrs. (Felicia Dorothea) Hemans."
