Writes to her friend in Middleborough, Massachusetts, scolding him for his lack of correspondence. She is angry and wonders why she continues to write at all. Wonders if he is waiting to hear from her. Mentions having two teeth extracted without chloroform and how brave she was. Has decided to hold off on anesthetic until she has four removed. Ponders the possibility that Everett has died or married someone else. Reports that one of her clan is getting married and will not tell him if it is her. She hopes his letter arrives before she changes her name! Letter has no date, but possibly 1849, as there is no discussion of Boston or California. Written on blue paper.
