I dont forget my friend [illegible]
We have a flourishing lyceum here and they are to have a “Chrismas
Tree” [illegible] has been busy making some useful as well as
[illegible] ornamental articles for her friends and I have done a little for the
children I believe [illegible] sent thee a [paper?](as he did to a [acquaints?] of their
friends) containing the “weekly” [acct?] of the Convention I think it would have
done you good my every worthy friends to have been with us in [Thunder?]
Hall_ [Dear?] Lucy Stone how womanly and motherly did she hold
up the truth as it is in [S?] Jersey I saw his [for?] the first time
Was able to attend the sitting but had no chance to converse
with her she told [Darcy?] of the course [our?] [valient?] ladies have
taken and I was not surpriz’d I have not liked SB Anthony
at all and have no more to say now. If we could meet we
might waste time on the case _ Lucy Stone has read the law
of [S?] Jersey and I wish thee could induce in [Hallovill?] and in
[Cartes?] to read the Laws of the different states they both have time
and tell them for me<u/> that I have faith in their good sense to
believe they would not regret the time thus spent Lucy gave
us the details and read a copy _ indeed it is startling to
think what Laws our Fathers and brothers have made and
enacted for Mothers sisters and wives to [illegible] _ as [galling?]
chains and now it was said in the Convention that Men were
exhausted and women must come to the rescue to save the
nation - Is the “Nation” a paper printed in the house of Tempe-
rance [circulated?] in your [liby?] do get it and read Phillips [sheet?]
or Lecture before the society it is [an?] historical view of the [illegible]
of the [cause?] as it will apply to all the other Cities as well as Boston
Monday [morn?] I wrote yesterday while [H&D?] were gone to attend a reform
meetg at John Gage house this is the 3rd they have held a few [illegible] [lessons?] much
