Letter from Grace Greenwood to James Fields, Sep 22, 1853
Description
An account of the resource
<span>Greenwood informs Fields that she has sent materials for the book by express and has decided to retain "Limerick Bells" for the volume. She is not getting well as fast as he has hoped and cannot leave Philadelphia until the middle of the next month. In turn, she asks Fields to forward the proof to her, attend to them himself or send them to Anna Phillips.<br />Greenwood is pleased to hear that Mr. Ticknor is on his voyage home and wishes she could welcome him in Boston. She herself had a bit of a mishap on her last voyage because her trunk was damaged on board of the "America." As she cannot be in Boston to demand damages she asks Fields to do so in her place.</span><br />
