Mott, Lucretia, 1793-1880

Description
|
Written from Roadside; it is not clear whether pages 1-4 and pages 5-8 are part of the same letter. Lucretia Mott passes along recent news of friends and family. She discusses a recent period of illness, which she attributes to overwork, and lists treatments she has tried. She also briefly mentions the schooling of her granddaughter Ellen Lord and talks about a visit from Robert Collyer, an abolitionist and Unitarian minister. Thomas or Marianna Mott has also written a letter to Anna Coffin Temple Brown on the last two pages describing a carriage accident.
