500 $aCaroline Weston gives advice in regard to the question of Deborah Weston taking over the school in New Bedford. She recommends keeping Emma or Lucia Weston with her as she is not well enough to be alone. Caroline writes: "If taking the school will injure your credit, don't do it--if it will not I should take it." Caroline has her "lawful 25" [pupils], but may be left alone any day, and would then like to join the Deborah. She describes a devastating storm in Weymouth. The ship, Grafton, arrived and brought Warren Weston's journal of his passage. Caroline comments, "my soul rejoiced over the books that he has recorded having read." Wendell and Ann Phillips have taken a house in Essex Street.
