notes
"Holograph, signed. Caroline Weston writes that Warren Weston arrived \"after a short passage of 12 days.\" Captain Moses \"wrote very good letters,\" apparently giving a favorable report of Warren Weston to Mr. Joshua Bates. Caroline tells of an afternoon occupied with taking care of Henry G. Chapman and keeping the children still. John A. Collins had an attack of bilious cholic which made him delirious. Caroline gives an account of callers and affairs that tired her out. Warren Weston is to sail July 2 in a steamboat. Dr. Amos Farnsworth told Lucia Weston that he was going to Europe in the fall. She comments: \"I should think he might take Anne.\" Caroline looks forward \"with anxiety inexpressible to the next 6 months.\" There are two layers of writing, lengthwise and crosswise, throughout most of the letter."
