Intense letter about gynecology and women's medical issues, possibly including abortion, from a Miss Dodge in New York City to a Mr. Maltbie. Dodge's letter concerns her friend (Maltbie's female cousin) who is "in a state of despondency & distress". It appears that this cousin, Miss Boynton, is the victim of an inept obstetrician. Miss Dodge appeals to Maltbie to get proper medical car for Boynton. In a post-postscript, the letter contains a reference to gynecologist Dr. Thomas Addis Emmet (1828-1919), co-founder of the Women's Hospital of New York.
