  • Letter from unidentified correspondent to Justin Perkins, 1855 March 6

    Perkins, Justin, 1805-1869

    A portion of a letter from an unidentified correspondent presumably to Justin Perkins in which the sender mentions the Russian intrigues they read about, stating that they trust that since Charles Augustus Murray's arrival, the British influence in the council of the Shah will improve things. They also write regarding local Corpus Christi celebrations, their frustrations with these celebrations, Theodore Parker, Sylvester Judd, Unitarianism, the tyranny of public opinion in New England, the freedom and customs in Canada, the behavior and manner of young people in England and the United States, and their role as a teacher in a school. The sender of this letter was likely Hannah Willard Lyman.
