Holograph, signed
Anne Warren Weston tells about various acquaintances. She applied a blister; describes the process and effect and also gives Dr. Amos Farnsworth's advice on the subject. Tells of the enthusiastic reception accorded Theodore Dwight Weld, who, in reporting on his anti-slavery activities, said he had engaged 36 lecturers. Says "[William Lawrence] Chaplin has consented to go, but not immediately." Anne repeats a conversation between Weld and Dr. Farnsworth on Dr. [Lyman] Beecher, who had been considered at Park Street Church for a call, also Weld remarks on [James A.] Thome, who had injured his health, lecturing when he was not well enough to do so. Weld's field of labor is to be Connecticut; he had asked Dr. Charles T. C. Follen if he would be an agent, but the latter could not undertake the work. Anne describes a church meeting, reviewing especially the prayer by [William Lawrence] Chaplin. Mentions Amos A. Phelp's avoidance of the abolition question
There is a receipt, Boston, Sept. 20, 1836: "Received of the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society sixty two dollars 25/100 on act. of sale of prints of Wm. Loyd [sic] Garrison," signed M. C. Lovery[?]
