She speaks of the death of her father, John Bishop Estlin, which may occur at any time. Mary A. Estlin says: "Your views on fighting interest me ...You 'believe in peace & yet sympathise with fighting.' I believe in peace & therefore have no sympathy whatever with anything pertaining to war." She refers to the Crimean War, of which she disapproves. She regrets that Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe's name can be used by Cuthbert Young "to the great injury of the cause." She discusses Parker Pillsbury's "extreme sensitiveness." Parker Pillsbury is going to Germany with Francis Bishop
