Letter. Catharine [Nicholson] Few, New York, New York, to James W. Nicholson, Esq, New Geneva, Pennsylvania

Date

1841 June 29
Part of: James Witter Nicholson Family Letters
Rare Books & Special Collections, Hesburgh Libraries

Catharine sends word of Maria Montgomery's diminished eyesight (something about which she had occasionally complained in her letters to James). She has lost the sight in one eye and can only use the other "with great precaution"; hence her failure to write as usual. News of Catharine's daughters Frances and Matilda, her granddaughter Mary, and other family members.
