notes
"Holograph. Letter appears to be incomplete. The end of the letter missing. Anne Warren Weston wishes the French boxes to be sent care of Wendell Phillips to 26 Essex Street, where they are to be marked. The sale (of their contents) will probably be held very soon at \"Mr. [Amos Bronson] Alcott's rooms in West St., next house to Miss [Elizabeth P.] Peabody's.\" Anne enumerates the copies of the Liberty Bell which Deborah is to send to France. She describes a meeting (of the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society) as \"one of the best we have ever held.\" Anne went to see Mrs. Follen in Cambridge, and found her quite ill. Anne said: \"I was received with the greatest joy & treated as if I had been a queen.\" At the evening meeting, the runaway slaves William and Ellon Craft produced an excellent effect. She tells of the grave illnesses of friends."
