Abstract
A letter from Albert Hafner to his fiancée Elizabeth Chandler in Massachusetts. He recounts a conversation he had with a sailor named Mr. Sweat, during which they discussed the sailing conditions in the Northeast, where Chandler lives. Chandler previously told Hafner about her trip to New Haven; he is surprised and concerned to hear Mr. Sweat say this is a poor place to visit. Sweat goes on to say it is a poor place because it is a temperance society, and the people who live there are either no fun or obtain alcohol in discrete ways.
