Now that Deborah Weston knows that Henry G. Chapman & Maria W. Chapman have arrived safefly, her "anxiety about Henry returns in full force." There has been much sickness and sudden death heard of here. She tells about the death of Mrs. Elizabeth E. Ellis. Wendell Phillips is to lecture in New Bedford on Sunday, April 24, [1842]. [Silas?] Hawley thought Wendell Phillips could lecture in the church, and if not, Hawley would "make an awful fuss." Deborah discusses Hawley's lecture on Christian union. Deborah comments about Hawley: "He really does his duty on anti-slavery." Deborah advises Anne to go to New York; and explains why Anne should not scruple to accept money. Deborah has been free from headaches for three weeks, and she thinks well of homeopathy.
