  • If nobody wants Maria Weston Chapman's side-saddle, she will send it to Mrs. Francis Gage, who needs one. Chapman comments: "But as far as my experience goes, it is far less fatiguing to ride astride." Chapman was at the Annual Meeting and saw all the usual friends, except for Pillsbury and Foster. At the meeting, "Mrs. Howe's battle-Hymn of the Republic was performed with unequalled power & effect -- one of our German friends, -- Lasar, having drilled the choir to the the expression of every shade of idea by variations & instrumentations." Chapman hears "an immense deal of the Adams-pass affair." She thinks the real difficulty is between England and Louis Napoleon. Chapman said: "He has got a handle against England by it, unless Eng. calls for satisfaction." Chapman received a letter from R.D.W. (Richard Davis Webb), who "speaks affectionately of Anne [Greene Chapman Dicey] 'grown up & presented at Court'--whom he remembers tending the little black & yellow kitten." Maria Weston Chapman continues this letter on Thursday, May 14, 1863. She writes that Wendell [Phillips] dined here last night. Chapman gives no advice [perhaps regarding his going to England]: "I do not judge him fit or able to do much in these circumstances. HIs vision & feeling are both too limited. H.W. Beecher is going."
