1840.10.25- Elizabeth Huntington to Frederic Dan Huntington, October 25th, 1840

Describes Elizabeth's reading in the journals the Monthly Miscellany and the Western Messenger, including appreciation of an essay on "a sister's influence" written by Frederic and presumably meditating on his sister Mary's recent death. The letter also discusses the receiving and sending of letters and packages within the family, Dan Huntington's health, and in a postscript, Elizabeth's fondness for singing in church.
