Mitchell, Martha Reed, 1818-1902 and Cunningham, Ann Pamela, 1816-1875
Scope and content:

A.L.S. Hoffman House. Delighted at result of meeting of Association. Sorry she couldn't be present. Thinks someone else younger would be better than she for the job. Thinks they did wrong thing in not paying Miss Tracy what she claimed her due. Miss Tracy had hard time during war and her conduct with Mr. Herbert is none of their business now that she has left Mount Vernon. Offers to pay Association some of what they owe Miss Tracy. Will be on lookout for laborers for Mount Vernon. Mr. Riggs could do harm to them if he desires. Disappointed in Mrs. Morse, no need for her to stay at Mount Vernon all the time if she can get a good secretary and a member of Mrs. Morse's family to stay there as a protector. A northerner would be better.
