Abstract
A letter from Edward Hitchcock to an unidentified recipient regarding the abridgement of his book "The Power of Christian Benevolence Illustrated in the Life of Mary Lyon." Hitchcock expresses his distress that the matter has not yet been settled. He expresses frustration with the abridgers' lack of communication with him and the amount of rewriting that occured on his portion of the text, and finally tells the recipient to do as he thinks is best, essentially washing his hands of the work. The letter does not appear to be in Hitchcock's hand and may be a secretarial copy.
