Holograph, signed.

Harriet W. Hayden writes that she received another copy of the Liberty Bell. She is unhappy in New York and would rather be actively engaged in anti-slavery work. She reports that Isaac T. Hopper's health is improving. Mr. Smith's health is much better; his illness was caused by his attempt "to save the life of another man who was on fire from the same lamp." Harriet W. Hayden comments on the odd appearance and kindly nature of Orson S. Murray. William H. Channing is the antagonist of John A. Collins at the Reform Convention at Boston; Harriet W. Hayden begs for information about Channing's conduct there. Apparently a lady in New York "received letters from Boston (one of which was written by Mr. Collins) stating that Mr. Channing was 'angry as a madman,' & 'abused Mr. Collins.' I cannot believe the report unless I receive it from Mr. Channing's friends."
