"Mingling Souls upon Paper: An Eighteenth-Century Love Story," a book by Bonnie Hurd Smith is the topic of a presentation at the Cape Ann Museum on Saturday. The book, based on letters nearly 200 years old, tells the tale of two historical Gloucester figures, feminist and writer Judith Sargent Murray (1751-1820) and her second husband, Universalist preacher John Murray (1741-1815).
