Call Number: MS Gris.
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.

Dates: 25 March 1850
