Mrs. Abby H. Lord states, in part: "I send you a correct statement of the arrests of the women, and leave you to do as you see fit with it... I told him that I had no one to train in his company; that we were all Dorrites...". Also prints "Addenda No. 243: Copy of an indictment against Mrs. Abbey H. Lord" signed [in type] by "Joseph M.
