notes
Holograph, signed with initials.
Anne Warren Weston is nearly used up, "for what with managing the civil & ecclesiastical affairs of N.B. [New Bedford]. I assure you it is no slight labour I perform." Anne has been treated with great kindness by sundry people, "though the people here as a general rule have not called." She wants Mary Weston to know Mrs. Grace Emerson, "for she is a person that will amuse you vastly."
