notes
"Holograph, signed. Anne W. Weston tells why she does not want to accept a teaching position in New Bedford, apparently proposed by Deborah Weston, one reason being that she can never keep a large school again unless she wears spectacles. Anne had a very agreeable time in Groton. \"Mrs. Farnsworth [perhaps the mother of Dr. Amos Farnsworth] is a very nice, ladylike woman.\" In Boston, Anne received calls from Sarah Freeman and E. Quincy, the latter looking delicate after having the measles. She gives news of family and acquaintances. Henry G. Chapman seemed no worse than before Anne went to Groton. \"his great breathlessness is his difficulty.\" Many will go from Weymouth to the picnics in Hingham, which will be held in a meeting house. Henry C. Wright is coming to Weymouth on Sunday, so they must bake tomorrow."
