Ellen Sever Tebbets was the wife of Theodore Tebbets, who authored "A Memoir of William Gibbons." Enclosed with a letter to John Hopper (A00181399). Has just learned about the draft riots that damaged the Gibbons home on 29th street. Feels anxious knowing "how glad the pro-slavery demons would be to wreak their hate upon" his family. Wants him to know how highly she thinks of his family and all that they do and knows they will not give up the cause no matter what.
