notes
"Holograph, signed. Caroline Weston heard that E. Quincy presided at a meeting in Dedham \"with great dignity.\" A long letter arrived from Wendell and Anne Phillips in Florence, complaining of fog and cold rooms. They did not venture to go to Rome on account of the pestilence. John A. Collins transmitted \"almost a thousand dollars.\" Caroline wants Mrs. Maria Chapman to write to everyone whom she can, to influence them in Collin's behalf. She wants Nathanial Colver's lies exposed by the publication of Collin's letter in the Liberator. She thinks \"Friend [Samuel E.] Sewall would be ashamed of his present position.\" Amos A. Phelps left the Chapman's notes of his speech with hardly any alterations. Mary Parker can live only a short time. There are two layers of writing, lengthwise and crosswise, through most of the letter."
