Rebecca Lewis Fussell was Graceanna Lewis' sister. Lewis recounts how a Miss Watkins asked her whether she wanted to be addressed as "Miss" or "Professor" on paper, and Lewis states that although she would prefer the title Professor, considering she does do a large amount of work in teaching students, unfortunately since the institution where she teaches is "not an endowed one," she cannot take this title. She laments that this would maybe have helped her publish her book. Lewis writes of her stress about the work she has to create for her students on the topics of Geology, Paleontology, Botany, and Zoology. She mentions that she has been examining over fifty plants as of late and hopes to look at more. Lewis brings up a "Miss Kelsie" who has worked as a missionary in China and talks about her interest in "foreign people."
