Lucretia Mott letter to Martha Mott Lord and family
Description
Written from Roadside. Mott tells her daughter (who has recently moved away to New York City) about the furniture Mott has found for her new home and discusses other home decorating matters. She talks at length about possible treatments for her granddaughter Fanny's back pain, comparing the options offered by different doctors as well as the opinion of abolitionist Robert Purvis. Mott also expresses reluctance about Susan B. Anthony's lecturing plan: "I'm past entering into any new movement."
