notes
"Holograph, signed. Mrs. Mary Welsh explains why the box for the Boston fair cannot be sent until the beginning of December. She points out that the \"great depression in trade and the starving thousands with which we are surrounded\" gives some people an excuse not to work for sufferers at a distance. There is an enclosure of a small box from Esther Sturge and copies of the (society's) report. The report had to be written cautiously \"in speaking about the divisions\"; however, \"our opponents are perfectly silent.\" Mrs. Mary Welsh, who is herself a widow, offers her sympathy to Mrs. Maria Weston Chapman."
