According to the author, Abigail Adams would not consider Louisa Catherine Adams' placement a defeat, because her goal in leaving an inheritance for Louisa was to give her the freedom to do as she pleases.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The author focuses on how Abigail Adams defined her will.
  • According to him, Abigail left her inheritance only for the women of the family, and the only men who were awarded an inheritance were her sons.
  • Abigail left an inheritance for her granddaughters and for her niece Louisa who was a great companion of hers.
  • Louisa received most of the inheritance and a share in the family business.

Abigail did this to give Louisa freedom and independence, so she could do whatever she wanted and for that reason, she wouldn't be irritated by Louisa's decision to hand over the inheritance to her children, who were also Abigail's family.
