Maria Weston Chapman opened the box from Sheffield, and found "the loveliest invoice man ever made," which she describes. Maria does not know the value of the items and discusses how much to sell them for at the anti-slavery fair. She sends her love to Anna's mother [Mrs. Louisa Loring?], who she hopes is recovering from an illness.
