Summary:On circulation of journal letters to Bristol friends and particularly letters 4 and 5 to Lady Henry Somerset and Miss Willard prior to their planned campaign against legalized vice and intemperance. They do not know Italy ... & will be disappointed if they think a Temperance crusade will at present take root there. It is the abuse - not the use, of God's gift's against which we make war! In Lausanne for a Committee d'Urgence & conference on Tuesday ... to talk over all our International work! and to see her son Charles ( We have been separated nearly 5 years!) who is still convalescing. Encloses a report on a meeting at Naples [not present] and praises her sister Hatty's work with the Sailor's Rest in Naples. Trying to publish an issue of The Dawnand asks for information about the abolitionist situation in India. I have felt very anxious about this great medical congress in Rome, of which Syphilographia! forms a department, but our Roman friends are on the watch! On IDC fiche.
