Nathaniel Barney has just arrived in New York after a passage of 35 days, prolonged by head winds, as he sailed in a packet ship. In London, at the annual meeting of Friends, Nathaniel Barney met Elizabeth Pease Nichol, for whom he is transporting a parcel of items purchased at the Anti-Corn Law Bazaar.

On pages 2-3, there is a postscript by Nathaniel Barrney written from Nantucket on July 16.

The letterhead on page one of this manuscript consists of an engraving (print) of the island of "Madeira."
