Scope and Contents

Contains a letter from Louisa May Alcott to a Mr. Moore; ink ALS on stationery with a large "A" monogram on the first page. Item is a witty letter commenting that: "As Concord boasts of sixty-nine spinsters, all more or less given to keeping the ball rolling, escort duty is somewhat severe even for a gallant cadet. So I trust that his recent labors have not been too much for the 'victim.'" Letter undated, dated approximately 1862-1888.
