Holograph, signed
Deborah Weston describes a meeting [in New Bedford?] which was excellent, but without "the excitement of uncertainty," as only five "peelers" were present. She mentions Crandall, [Daniel] Wise--"his was real venom"--and [Gilbert H.] Durfee. All regretted passing "those resolutions" and were ready to renounce Alanson St. Clair. John A. Collins and William Lloyd Garrison dined with Andrew Robeson. Deborah thinks John A. Collins a "perfect jewel." A terrible fit of homsickness lasted until Deborah discovered that she would have vacation in three weeks. Mr. Wilson, a Methodist minister, called and Deborah explained abolitionist matters to him. She describes various people in New Bedford. She gives advice on the rearing of little Henry Chapman
On page four, Deborah signs the letter "DW." Her initials are barely visible
