"Holograph, signed. Edmund Quincy presumably wrote this letter to Maria Weston Chapman. Edmund Quincy is pretty well satisfied with the article he wrote about William Lloyd Garrison and (Daniel) O'Connell. In the article, he states that O'Connell eulogized William L. Garrison in a public speech in 1840 and that he identified himself publicly with American abolitionism. Edmund Quincy asks Maria W. Chapman if he is mistaken in either point. He playfully threatens that if Anne Warren Weston does not treat him well, he will send her back to Weymouth and have little Emma Weston back again, since \"she is worth all the rest of you put together.\" Joshua Leavitt said that Edmund Quincy's statements are \"the reverse of the truth.\" Leavitt intends to make an explanatory statement in the Lowell Courier. Edmund Quincy refers to this challenge in the metaphor of a duel. He wishes Maria W. Chapman to collect and send all evidence of the transfer of the Emancipator and \"the other rascalities\" of the Executive Committee. If James Brown Yerrington \"designs any atrocities\" in the Liberator this week, \"could you not manage to suppress them.\" Edmund Quincy tells of a drive with John A. Collins to Dedham; Collins has a low opinion of Edmund Quincy's position."
