Description

Elizabeth’s letter to Frederic describes her current state, as well as the health of other members of the Huntington family. She tells Frederic of her expedition to Northampton during the Sabbath, and listening to Mr. Smith’s sermon. She also speaks of her recent cold, which has since healed. Elizabeth also speaks about her other sons, including Edward and Theophilus. She also informs Frederic of how his father (her husband) is preaching, and the trivial actions of his other siblings. She tells Frederic she wishes to hear from him soon, particularly within a week.
