Abby Hopper Gibbons letter to Sarah Hopper Gibbons Emerson
Description
Discusses recent news concerning family/friends. Discusses her work at the "Asylum" and says, "We took in our first colored baby, although Mrs. Garrison expressed a hope that we would never get so low as that–no one had the courage to ask a white mother to take it–I do not care what the color is, if I can do it any good." Briefly discusses work "with our Home sisters" from the Isaac T. Hopper Home and the fact that Julia is getting ready to go to Beverly.
