Graceanna Lewis and Elizabeth Lewis letter to Mariann Lewis
Description
Elizabeth Lewis and Mariann Lewis were Graceanna Lewis' sisters. Graceanna tells Mariann ("Molly") that Lucretia Mott was at the last Quarterly Meeting; that Mary (likely Mary Townsend) took chloroform for a medical problem, but it had ill effects; and that Graceanna and Elizabeth have received a letter saying that Mariann and their brother-in-law Edwin Fussell have arrived safely in Pendleton. Elizabeth ("Libby") briefly discusses the school she runs. Much of the letter is spent relaying news about family members, especially the ups and downs of the health of the sisters' grandmother, Rebecca Bond Fussell.
