notes
"Holograph, signed. Henry Grafton Chapman writes regarding family business and money. Yesterday was the opening of the \"abolition Fair (which they had the effrontery to style anti-slavery)...\" Maria Weston Chapman received money from Mrs. Eliza Lee Cabot Follen and from Mrs. Lucy Sessions. Lucy Sessions says that \"Sister [Mrs. Abigail] Folsom is a precious soul.\" [Mrs. Abigail Folsom was called by R.W. Emerson \"that flea of Conventions.\" Compare with the essay \"The Chardon Street Convention\" in Lectures and Biographical Sketches.\"] Joel P. Bishop is giving trouble, demanding that William Lloyd Garrison publish an inquisitory letter in the Liberator. \"His letter Garrison decided at once he sh'd not publish.\""
