Holograph, signed
Increase S. Smith heard that Caroline Weston expressed her sympathy to Mrs. Moorfield and family. He reflects on divine mercy. He refers to Caroline Weston's part in the meeting recently mobbed, and he explains why he thinks the measures of the abolitionists are wrong. He deprecates the mob spirit which pervades the land and thinks the burning of [Ursuline] Convent enough for New England for a quarter of a century, and he grieves at the lenity with which the mob is spoken of. Increase S. Smith invites Caroline Weston to visit him, and he will give her an "aesthetic tea." He tells of his plans for instructing the Young Ladies' Reading Society
