Holograph.
Debora Weston complains of facial neuralgia. She paid a seamstress five shillings and sixpence for work done on a dress. Isaac Taber was elected to a local office on the Democratic ticket over Rodney French and John Bailey. J. Congdon can't make up his mind to vote. She regrets the division in the abolitionist ranks between the Whigs and the Democrats. Amos A. Phelps has become aware of the effect of the pamphlet, Right and Wrong in Massachusetts. Debora tells about a letter from Warren Weston.
