Notes:
Holograph, signed.
Anne Warren Weston heard Charles T. Torrey preach "a most indifferent sermon" at the Free Church. Wendell Phillips and Henry G. Chapman received an impudent letter from New York signed by Lewis Tappan, Henry B. Stanton, Joshua Leavitt, and [Samuel E.?] Cornish. Edmund Quincy has written a beautiful letter begging for money for the N. R. [Non Resistance] Society. "I think very highly of Edmund as a good man." Henry and Maria Chapman called at Dr. Charles T.C. Follen's "to see him will cogged as he has taken [Nathaniel] Colver's place at the Board." Anne is troubled about the health of Richard Hildreth. Yesterday, Garrison read an expose "which was unanimously accepted, save by Phelps." Anne fears "Phelps' doom is sealed," as he has gone to Mary Parker's in town[?]. "I hardly think he will marry Mary, but he may Eliza." Anne will bring little Henry Chapman when she returns to Weymouth.
