Referring to her husband's Hudibrastic production, Maria Lowell wrote from Cambridge to Maria Mott Davis (Ms. Jan. 8, 1847): ‘I wonder if you enjoyed his description of the Fair as much as I did. I saw Garrison the other day, and he seemed to be especially pleased with it, and the account of Stephen Foster delighted him. Of that and Maria Chapman he spoke most particularly.

So, too, the enthusiasm manifested at our meetings was altogether in the English style. For example, at the close Ante, p. 173. of our last meeting, three tremendous cheers were given to Douglass, three for Foster, and three for myself. Everything S. S.

River, . . . and from thence rode to New Brighton in an omnibus, some three or four miles, accompanied by several of our colored Pittsburgh friends—J. B. Vashon and son (George B.), Dr. Peck, Dr. Delaney (editor of the Mystery, black as jet, M. R. Delaney. and a fine fellow of great energy and spirit), and others— where <
