Description

Holograph, signed.Anne Warren Weston begins the letter with details of her daily life: meeting James Congdon at Colman's bookstore, receiving a report from Isaac Knapp and sending it to Deborah Weston, visits from Melania Ammidon and Mary Harris, etc. She received an invitation to dine with Professor Longfellow. She mentions an offer by Rev. Henry Colman to Caroline Weston of a teaching position in Philadelphia. "After that call was over, I went down to Avon Place & called upon Margaret Fuller. She was more sublime than ever; up in a higher latitude than ever before, but she was very glad to see me." She describes some articles sent from Lynn to the Anti-Slavery Fair. "Henry Bowditch is engaged to an English lady, had been for several years, ever since he was in Europe."
