Alice Cary, Mt. Healthy, OH., autograph letter signed to R. W. Griswold, 25 March 1850
Scope and Contents
Mt. Healthy, O.H. An intensely personal letter, full of admiration and affection for Griswold: "I knew and repented having written in a manner which in woman is considered unallowable." Describes her own personality and appearance. Requests his daguerreotype. Thinks Moss and Bro. very unfair; [John Greenleaf] Whittier recommends Ticknor and Fields. Phoebe is much less serious than she.
