Lucretia Mott letter to Edward Hopper and Elizabeth Coffin Yarnall
Title:
Lucretia Mott letter to Edward Hopper and Elizabeth Coffin Yarnall
Description:
Lucretia Mott is in Brooklyn visiting her daughter Martha "Pattie" Mott Lord, who has just given birth to a daughter named Anna. She mentions a visit to John Merritt's and Robert Collyer and discusses Quaker ideas about music, dancing, and weddings. "The solemnity of a marriage forbade its being made a festive occasion.... I thought 'the practice of music and the feelings of Friends had undergone such change, as to regard it less objectionable in this day—when dancing was little more than walking, and preferable to the kind of plays at weddings when some of us were young.'"
