The beginning of this letter is missing
Richard Davis Webb does not correspond with Mary Anne Estlin as much as formerly. Mary A. Estlin's health has been bad and mental strain has brought on severe headaches and eye trouble. Mary A. Estlin attempted to compile a memoir of her father, John Bishop Estlin, but was opposed in this effort by her near realtives. Richard D. Webb praises Eliza Wigham and comments about the Wigham family: "She and her mother Jane Wigham are warmly attached and are really the pillars of all anti-slavery effort in Scotland. John Wigham, the father, is a rosy, grey headed, hearty man of 79, remarkably cheerful, light hearted, & pleasant..." John Wigham has two sons, Henry and John. Richard D. Webb inquires about traveling in Europe. Richard D. Webb writes: "Richard Allen, married to a cousin of mine, has travelled a great deal, he spends some months every year on the continent..." Mrs. Michell is in Bridgewater, a very quiet place in Richard D. Webb's opinion. S. A. Steinthal is about to take Francis Bishop's place in Liverpool as a missionary to the poor. Rev. Bishop is going to Manchester. Richard D. Webb condemns the war between England and China. Richard D. Webb was sorry to hear that Lucia Weston is still sick
