Excerpt from White, Red, Black, Vol. 2 of 2: Sketches of American Society in the United States During the Visit of Their Guests We found most amiable persons amongst them; Senator Mitchell and his lady, plain, unassuming and kind-hearted people, interested themselves warmly about our children, and when they understood that we had four, they offered us to adopt one boy, as they were childless.
