| Abstract | J. Peabody letter to Justin Perkins in which Peabody writes that they are glad Perkins' Mission sent home Mr. Stocking and family and Miss Fisk (Fidelia Fiske) for their sake, the Cochrans' sake, and "our sake." He says it does good for the missionary's body to break from their labors and visit their brethren at other missions. Peabody remarks on the Cochrans' journey to Perkins and writes regarding them. He expresses his delight at seeing the Stockings and Miss F. and says that they anticipate pleasure in seeing the Perkinses next Autumn. He also comments on the poor health of brother Stoddard. |
