Description
Holograph, signed with initials
Maria Weston Chapman is sick in bed with influenza; she describes her symptoms and plans to take the medicine prescribed by Hervey [Weston]. She describes at length her correspondence with Thomas Gold Appleton; Thomas Gold Appleton received a letter intended for John James Appleton. [See Thomas G. Appleton's letter to Maria Weston Chapman, Nov. 16, 1843, Call No. Ms.A.9.2 v.19, p.78.] Chapman hopes that the goods sent from Paris by Thomas G. Appleton will arrive on time, and suggests sources of payment for the goods. A box arrived from London; other boxes seem to be on the way from Cork and Glasgow. Chapman reports that the Liberty Bell is "almost done--tolerably successfully." Edmund Quincy contributed a good story, but "[Nathaniel P.] Roger's piece is not a credit to him--& will not go in. We may hear from Longfellow & Stetson." Chapman also asked Charles Sumner. She alludes to David Lee Child's "folly." She praises this week's Liberator. William Lloyd Garrison wrote the parody of [Daniel] O'Connell's address for the Liberty Bell, "but we would not have it." Richard Allen sent his contribution too late
Edmund Quincy's story, "Lewis Herbert," is on p. 136-173, The Liberty Bell, 1844. Nathaniel P. Roger's story, "Blind Guides," is on p. 224-228, The Liberty Bell, 1844
On the second leaf, Maria Weston Chapman discusses some oil lamps and the repairs needed on an embossing machine. She also talks about correcting a proof, etc
This letter was written on a circular (flier) advertising the Tenth Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Fair, at Amory Hall and the Melodon, on Christmas and New Year's week
