In this letter, Lucia Weston reports on the movements of Anne Warren Weston, who visited Taunton, finding "but few true folks there," and then went to Lynn, where she spoke to a mixed assembly. Maria Weston Chapman wrote the piece signed "an old country abolitionist, as well as the account of the two meetings of the Boston Female [Anti-Slavery Society]. "Mary Parker says that there are at least 5 lies in it, but she does not consider it worthy of an answer." Lucia praises little Ann [Anne Greene Chapman Dicey]. She says that Lissy Chapman [Elizabeth Bates Chapman Laugel] does well some times, other times "she acts like fury." Mr. [Philo C.] Pettibone, who was just made an agent and is laboring in the western part of the state, sent in $80 this morning. Caroline Weston has moved her school.

On page three of the manuscript, there is a unsigned postscript.
