notes
"Holograph, signed with initials. Anne Warren Weston suggests that \"some little notice of the recent sale should be inserted in the Liberator.\" She wants to know the amount realized by the sale. She plans to circulate a Disunion petition. Anne is reading the book Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray. She says that \"It is a very different, and very inferior to Jane [Eyre], but it is a very readable book.\" She mentions a review of both books in the London Quarterly. Her family suggested an anti-slavery fair in a foreign city. She condemns conventions as a waste of time and money."
