Description
Holograph, signedLucretia Ann Cowing will go home in three months. The Governor is going to put the children (Lucretia A. Cowing's students) "out to school, for he is tired out with them. He says that they will never be any credit to anyone. And he wishes he had never had them. And they are two of the most stupid children that ever I saw." Cowing reports two contradictory remarks by the Governor regarding John Quincy Adams. One, that he "had better be at home he was an old fool." The other, that he (the Governor) wishes he "knew half as much as he does," adding that he was not an abolitionist. Cowing repeats stories that she has heard regarding Arthur Tappan and Maria Weston Chapman
