Reminiscence of Elias Hicks Annotated

June 8.—To-day a letter from Mrs. E. S. L., Detroit, accompanied in a little post-office roll by a rare old engraved head of Elias Hicks, (from a portrait in oil by Henry Inman, painted for J. V. S., must have been 60 years or more ago, in New York)—among the rest the following excerpt about E. H. in the letter:

"I have listen'd to his preaching so often when a child, and                  sat with
my mother at social gatherings where he was the centre,                 and every one
so pleas'd and stirr'd by his conversation. I hear that you                 contemplate
writing or speaking about him, and I wonder'd whether                 you had a picture
of him. As I am the owner of two, I send you one."
