notes
"Holograph, signed. Caroline Weston wants to stay in town over Sunday. Otherwise, she would return home on account of \"Ma's ill turns.\" Caroline writes that \"Garrison & Jackson are such fools that they have got Stanton & Leavitt with others to speak at the Faneuil Hall meeting which comes off Sunday night--no need of words.\" Caroline Weston called on Elizabeth Moorfield and her husband, \"who is I think nephew to Judge Story\" [no]. Finding that Caroline intended to go to \"the trial,\" he offered to secure her a good place inside the bar. \"The trial\" referred to in this letter, is presumably the trial of George Latimer, fugitive slave, which was to take place before Judge Story."
