Text: Annie L. Richmond to Edgar Allan Poe — before January 21, 1849

[[. . . .]] I will not repeat all her vile & slanderous words — you have doubtless heard them — but one thing she says that I cannot deny though I do not believe it — viz — that you had been publisher to her once, & that on the Sat. preceding the Sabbath on which you were to have been published for the second time, she went herself to the Rev Mr Crocker’s, & after stating her reasons for so doing, requested him to stop all further proceedings. [[. . . .]]

Notes:

This long sentence was quoted in Poe’s letter of about January 21, 1849, to Mrs. S. H. Whitman.
