This unsigned letter is presumably by Maria Weston Chapman.
Maria Weston Chapman writes that three boxes for the fair have been sent off and have arrived in Havre. Chapman includes a list of their contents, with prices. There is also a list of donors [in Paris?], who made donations to the bazaar, who are listed for acknowledgment in the Liberator. There is private information about Chapman's own contribution. Chapman said: "Paris box is to bring 822 dollars. If it brings half that sum it will do very well."
