18 miles north of this place & 4 [illegible] side of Bellows falls I liked the appearance of the inhabitants, the best of any place I have been in lately - There is one proper publisher there & one more will be this fall - They have one of the best Universalist society in the state - They have a very neat house; as pretty a one as I have been into since I left the City in which is an Organ. The society is large and respectable The universalists hold about the same stand here at P. Mile that the Orthodox do in Phillipston, and the Orthodox occupy about the same stand there that the universalist do in Phillipston - have taken a school to teach this fall in Chesterfield - Chesterfield is situated about 15 miles West of Keene & 20 south west of Townshend & 8 from Brattleboro east - I was up there some five weeks ago and staid over Sunday. I think that I shall like this fall. I attended church there. They have two churches [illegible] one orthodox & one Methodist - the Orthodox are as set here (so I am told) as they are in Phillipston - Mr. Asa Marsh resides here. He
