Holograph, signed
Caroline Weston is glad that Maria & Henry Chapman escaped the below zero weather during the week in which they were shutting up the house at No. 11 West Street. Elizabeth B. Chapman is staying with Caroline Weston and is well and happy. The other Chapman children are also well. She reports on the proceedings of the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society, including the cost of binding Liberty Bell and other anti-slavery matters. She tells of an evening at Mrs. Thankful (Hussey) Southwick's, with George Bradburn, "only dashed by a very painful letter from James Gibbons calling for assistance to get out another copy of the Standard. She fears the Standard will stop printing. The Liberator, however, "stands firm" and is out of debt. "[Joel P.] Biship continues mousing round & doing all the harm he can." George Bradburn introduced the "Men's Petition respecting the colour law," headed by William Henry Channing. She tells of circumstances of John Pierpon't signing and later asking to withdraw his name. She describes a theological discussion between Mrs. Thankful Southwick and [Edward Norris] Kirk. Anne W. Weston was ordered out of the house by the back stairs while petitioning. The Mass. Anti-Slavery Society has sent $200 to New York to keep the Standard going. Mary Chapman will send Harriet Martineau's book, The Hour and the Man. Caroline Weston expects her school to be much larger in the spring than it has been
