notes
"Holograph, signed. Richard D. Webb has a son \"who is half demented about queer languages and out of the way corners of the earth.\" He wants a catalogue of the publications of the American Bible Society and is especially interested in Sandwich and Pelew Islands and Mexican Indians. He sends a message to Edmund Quincy that \"De Quincy came & he shall be paid.\" He offers a contribution for the Liberty Bell, and gives directions for printing. [The 1851 or 1852 copy of the Liberty Bell contains \"Expostulation,\" by Richard D. Webb.] He sends a slip from the Bristol Examiner for the Liberator. This letter is written on the inside flap of an envelope addressed to Anne Warren Weston."
