Excerpt from The Huntington Letters: In the Possession of Julia Chester Wells At her request I have undertaken to add a word of explanation, without, how ever, attempting to annotate more than a few of the many names of persons which occur in these pages. It has been my ob jcet to reproduce these letters as much as possible in their original condition - to let them tell their own story, and not to edit away their peculiarities. For this reason I have retained their vagaries of Spelling; have refrained from supplying punctuation, even when it seemed much needed; nor have I ventured to cut down religious effusions, conventional precepts, harrowing descriptions of bodily ailments, or pretty phrases of courtesy; these are touches of the time, and throw light on social and economic conditions.
