notes
"Holograph. Anne Warren Weston gives family news. Mr. and Mrs. John A. Collins are in town, preparing to move to Skaneateles, [NY]. Anne has written a censorious letter to Nathaniel P. Rogers because of \"that abuse of O'Connell's Grace.\" She dislikes James Brown Yerrinton's articles: \"If Garrison does not take the stuff out of his hand, I shall drop my Liberator. I am ashamed of it. All E.Q. [Edmund Quincy]'s good articles are neutralized.\" Collins and Maria Weston Chapman laid out the plan for 100 conventions in Massachusetts next winter. Collins heard that A.K. [Abby Kelley?] went to Boston \"to pull David Child out of his Editorial Chair.\" Collins spoke as though \"settled in his mind to resign the agency.\" (Oliver) Johnson just returned from Vermont; his father is dead. Shobal L. Vail Clevenger is \"in great distress at Rome, sick with a spine complaint.\" [The American sculptor, Shobal L. Vail Clevenger, died on the return voyage from Rome in September 1843.] A Mr. De Rosier, a white-faced quadroon, came to tea. The ship, Nestor, is in port. Richard Hildreth has been here all morning. \"I do not think I ever saw him in a more bright agreeable state.\" He will write for the Liberty Bell."
