1843.10.14 - Elizabeth Huntington to Frederic Dan Huntington, October 14th, 1843

Remembrances of Mary's death begin a letter about another family illness (unclear whether it is Edward or Dan who has worrisome digestion troubles). Elizabeth sends her youngest son many pounds of butter and instructs him on how best to store it. The delivery is carried by a friend and left for Frederic at a Boston hotel. Frugal she asks him to return the packaging materials.
