"Holograph, signed with initials. George Thompson describes the convention in Union Village; S.S.F. [Stephen Symonds Foster] attacked church organizations and Abby [Kelly Foster] \"made a masterly (no mistressly) speech.\" Thompson received vociferous applause for his replies to a critic. Thompson closes the letter by saying: \"Can you put up with these epistles? If you can you shall hear more concerning the rambles of an Incendiary.\" Includes, accompanying envelope with the delivery address: \"Messrs. Goodhue & Co., New York City.\" With a notation in the lower left corner: \"For Miss A. W. Weston.\""
