Holograph, signed
The first part of the letter is missing
Caroline Weston describes Mrs. Maria W. Chapman's correspondence with Elizur Wright and his "indignantly repelling the charge of being [Charles Turner] Torrey's editor." She describes an interview between Mrs. Chapman and John G. Whittier, in which the latter said that Garrison had done great harm in calling Stanton "a dabbler in Politicks..." [Nathaniel] Colver resigned from the Board. There are reports that Torrey's [Salem] society "are out with him for his recent course," and that the Free Church "is much displeased with [Amos A.] Phelps for his course." Phelps is better, but the tubercles are thought to be incurable. "[Asa] Mahan has made a great stir & the Boston clergy are holding meetings to find out how they shall put him down." The new paper (the Massachusetts Abolitionist) is out and "is said to be weakish." Caroline tells about the death of a young man who lost his reason from an illness and was sent to a hospital for the insane at the time of a typhus epidemic
