500 $aLucia Weston informs Anne Warren Weston that she need not worry about coming home, for "Mama" seems much better. She gives news about "Grandmama's folks" and others in Weymouth. Lucia asks for "light news" and a book; she wants Anne to get the last number of Bently, which contains an Ingoldsby [story]. Anne W. Weston is to tell is to tell Mrs. Maria Weston Chapman that a "cold water army formed here, of which Mr. Spear is leader, and the children speak Temperance peices, they hold meetings every Tuesday evening in Mr. Perkins' vestry, and last Tuesday evening to a crowded house." Mr. Perkins talks of leaving in the spring.
