notes
"Holograph, signed. Isabel Jennings read with anxiety about the illness of the \"matchless Garrison.\" Jennings meditates on what a country America will become when slavery is abolished and the country becomes less materialistic. Jennings comments that \"Irishmen have too much contempt for the advantages gained by money.\" Dr. [John Pringle] Nichol of Glasgow will be the bearer of this letter. Dr. Nichol is an astronomer, and \"he is a most delightful man---refined, poetical, intellectual and warm-hearted.\" She hopes that Dr. Nichol will call on Maria Weston Chapman."
