Notes:

The following is taken directly from a book entitled John Adams and the America Revolution, A Decision Arrived At, by Catherine Drinker Bowen 1951, pages 299 - 300. The paragraphs concern a conversation that took place between Abigail and John Adams. It states:

"Your mother had a new dress," she said, "of peach-colored taffeta. And a peach-colored bonnet, trimmed with white satin ribbons. Have you not noted it?  Mr. John Hall, last night, admired the costume excessively when he was here. Ladies" - Abby paused, finished with a touch of ribaldry highly surprising - "ladies do not wear satin ribbons to catch flies with." 

John stared, then leaped from his chair. "In God's name!" he said. "Not Mr. Hall?  Not my mother and old John Hall . . . Abby!"  John shouted indignantly. "Is my mother going to marry that old _______?" 

Abby looked serenely at her husband over her work. "There is no need to swear and rant," she said. "The thing is decided. He has admired her for years. Anyone but you, would have seen it long ago. But you had best let her tell you herself." Abby's face showed infinite satisfaction. "I have done all I could to further the match. Your mother will have companionship as she grows old. You and your brothers have shown scant sympathy, to my way of thinking. Lieutenant Hall is a fine man; old widowers are very amiable toward womenkind. Moreover he has a commodious house.  And if he works with his hands - why, have I not heard you say often that manual labor is ennobling?" Abby folded her work, rose from her chair. "I might add," she finished, "that your mother's marriage will enable you to move your wife, your daughter, and your son to Boston at our mutual convenience."
