Anne Warren Weston assures Deborah Weston that she need not worry because she has only ten scholars in her school. She reports on affairs at Weymouth. She comments on the Universalist preaching of (John M.?) Spear. Anne tells of her domestic tasks and of having written to Mary G. Chapman advising her "to hold no communication with C. or any of his friends who might be in town at the Convention." [The advice given to Mary G. Chapman apparently refers to circumstances connected with the termination of her engagement. See letter dated 12 Feb. 1841, Call No. Ms.A.9.2 v.15, p.24] She has been preparing for Hervey Weston's departure. Little Henry Chapman is a very troublesome child. "Annie [Chapman] is a little jewel."
