Holograph, signed.
Edmund Quincy reminds Caroline Weston of her promise "to provide for certain numbers of the N. R. [Non-Resistant]." He expects Caroline Weston to send editorial matter for the first issue in May, and "I think I have given you time enough to rest from the labors of the fair ..." George Bradburn gave a "very good lecture to a rather poor house last night." Edmund Quincy has little hope for Dedham and "can't reckon up but three men who may be called righteous (including myself) ..."
Includes an envelope with the delivery address: Miss Caroline Weston, Roxbury. With these instructions: "To be left at Mr. Chapmans & Chauncy Pl."
