Deborah Weston says that Prof. William Adam called. He wanted to borrow $500 from Henry [Chapman?]. Mary [Chapman?] favored the loan. Deborah Weston went to the A-S [anti-slavery] offices. She says that "there has been much mobbing at Nantucket." Deborah writes that "Bro. May is going to take the normal school at Lexington, that is, if his nomination is confirmed. Horace Mann nominated him." Mrs. Johnson and some others are going to Andover. Wendell Phillips is in poor health. And "old Ezra Weston is dead, 70 years old."
