Letter, New York, to Debora Weston, 1841 August 25
Unknown writes to Debora Weston in regards to remembering her often for bringing her a shell from New Bedford and for being a "pleasant gleam of sunshine." The writer describes the monotonony and seclusion of life and mentions that anti-slavery is "defunct in this region. There is no old org[anization] except James S. Gibbons, and I.J. Hopper's family." The writer says that despite this, their anti-slavery work is being done in the community. The writer seeks advice regarding the placement of the Turpin children now that they can "no longer remain where they are." The writer also asks why Debora won't write a few anti-slavery pieces from New Bedford for the "Standard, now and then?"
