Weymouth, [Mass.]
Description
Holograph, signed
Anne Warren Weston reports on the welfare of Mrs. Maria W. Chapman's children. Little Henry "bids fair to know how to read some time or other." Little Ann continues to be "the very queen of hearts." Relates how George Bradburn, invited to speak at a temperance meeting, fled on seeing Nathaniel Colver. Mr. Amos Bronson Alcott has no lights in his house "because he will not sanction killing whale." Anne W. Weston has written several articles for the Offering, which will "get along somehow till the 20th of March when Collins is expected." She mentions the kind hospitality of Henrietta Sargent. "I don't think L.M.C. [Lydia Maria Child?] treats them [the Sargents] with all the attention she might." "The Weymouth people are looking a very great interest in the Herald of Freedom, 7 or 8 people here are beginning to take it. It almost cuts out the Liberator." Abby Kelley thinks of joining the Community (Brook Farm). "Mr. [Geoge] Ripley highly admires her..."
