Correspondence
Scope and Contents
Abigail writes to Mrs. Elizabeth Ann Morse Colgate, the mother of Gilbert, apologizing for her inability to visit due to illness, and congratulating her on her son’s marriage, while updating her on various aspects of her life circumstances. Abigail alludes to Richard Cary Morse and Jedidiah Morse, Elizabeth’s father and grandfather, and her past acquaintance with him as the reason for her interest in the Colgate family.
