500 $aAnne Warren Weston describes her reception upon arriving [at Dr. Amos Farnsworth?]. She describes Miss Grey as the "present premier ... I am very glad she is here to mantronise me." She is pleased "to have one person in this house who has no more thought of my being engaged to the Dr. than to Henry or George." She heard Rev. Dudley Phelps, a former abolitionist, preach. The doctor, having interrogated her about her state of health, suggested that her stomach rather than her lungs might be the cause of her trouble, and prescribed exercise and diet. She took some long walks and thinks the air of Groton has helped her. She refers to Deborah Weston's feeling about the school [at Bedford], reminds her that she has been there but a short time and agrees that the recompense "is the most cheering circumstance of the whole affair." Writes about New Bedford and Groton acquaintances.
