Description

Holograph.Anne Warren Weston is largely concerned with the forthcoming fair. "We have received from abroad 6 boxes." She asks for certain directions. "The Bristol box is on its way in a sailing vessel, thanks to Mary Carpenter's folly..." She discusses the printing of the Liberty Bell and fears there will be many misprints. "The prose is better than sometimes, but there is no distinguished piece of poetry like Miss Barretts." The fair will be opened on the 20th. "Everybody seems disposed to help & do their part but if Emma is gone next year, I really wish some other way might be invented."The accompanying envelope is addressed to Mrs. Chapman in Paris and dated Dec. 13. On the flap and inside of the envelope, Anne Warren Weston appears to have continued this letter and signed it with the initials "A.W.W."
