I think some good was done. We have Organized and formed a Church & I wish you would see Dr. Allen and get Mrs. Kendall's & Miss Woodbury's letters from the Marietta Church and send them to us. Abby is about as she was - she had done nothing since she got here some? the work of the House for a few weeks - She has not been out doors & hardly out of her room
