Mrs. Eliza Frances Meriam called. "She will make a fine Treasurer." Anne Warren Weston attended the monthly concert (of prayer for the slaves). Captain William Ladd made a "most peeling speech. I never heard such daubing with untempered mortar. O. Johnson discomfitted him altogether." William (R.) Chapman prayed. Anne mistrusts him a little. She was shown about a hospital by a Dr. Whipple. "I think he respects me with a preference. What think you of turning my attention that way?" She describes a conversation with a clergyman, Dr. (Edward J.?) Taylor, who "is very narrow intellectually." J.A. Collins was here, "settling" with H.G. Chapman. "The other Fair is to be held the 17, 18, 19th of Nov. this Chapman told me--I suppose ours will be announced soon." Mary Parker is ill, probably mostly from worry.
