Date:
1785-1788
Wilhelmina Nisbet, the Countess of Leven, writes five letters to Dickinson President Charles Nisbet in which she speaks of the health of her family and disapproves of Nisbet's new position at Dickinson College. "I still think you have been hurried off this stage which I do most sincerely regret - my worthy friend Dr. Rush and I would be antipodes in your affairs," as Wilhelmina notes. She also laments over some conflicts that have arisen between Nisbet and Rush upon the former's arrival in America. Transcripts included.
