Abstract
H-1 1838, Nov. 28 Letter to E. R. in Berlin from his sister Elisabeth in New Haven, CT. The weather was so miserable in Utica (snow and rain) that the road to Clinton was not suitable for her passage there. Thus her intended visit to Clinton was canceled. She did, however, see Prof. Lathrop and learned that all of their friends were as usual, except for Aunt Norton who was declining and might not survive another week. At Utica Elisabeth saw several of the Kirkland family and M. A. Wetmore (with whom she took tea). Mrs. Lothrop is to spend the winter in Boston. She has been this fall to South Carolina with Samuel to visit Sarah. The latter is there with the same lady with whom she was placed at Bethlehem. The Whigs were defeated in the election in consequence of the measure of the abolitionists. Of course C. P. Kirkland lost his election. On her return to New Haven, she found everyone in good health, a most unusual occurrence. Charles "is full of business and in addition to law and insurance is one of a committee for making arrangements for building a new county jail. He also has been lately occupied in the subject of 'common schools' and seems to have much influence here." She occupies the back room at Charles' home, the one Edward occupied two years ago. Thanks Edward for letters from Constantinople (Aug. 2) and the Danube (Aug. 25) and was amused by his account of Sirvicin maidens and "thinks he must have become quite romantic in the East." Adds a postscript dated Nov. 29, Thanksgiving Day. George, Harriet, and Louisa dined with Charles' family. Also on this day Elisabeth and Charles heard an excellent sermon by Mr. Bacon on the subject of common school education.
