 Subject: . Meeting with Dr P Jan. 22 1998. ECP/ 99/ 3//

Met with Dr. P briefly to discuss my project.  Once again we talked about visions of opportunity for women in the new republic.  I don't think I am accurately expressing my concerns.  I do feel that I have a lot of materials on Isabella Clark, Anna Thornton, and to a lesser extent Abigail Adams.  My problem really is conceptualization. I am having difficulties piecing them together and with the whole idea of creating the City and fitting in how they are participating.

Dr. Papenfuse talks about how  I should represent Anna Thornton and William Thornton as the successful version of Isabella Clark and Joseph Clark.

I need to deemphasize the Revolution in the way that I reworded the first chapter. Rely less on Mary Beth Norton etc and bring up more current.  Dr. P talked about looking at the Rev as speding the speculation.
