Description
Holograph, signed
Title supplied by cataloger
May announces the shipment of the annual box of reports and pamphlets. He complains that quite a number of copies of the "Anti-Slavery Advocate" have not been received and discusses the means of paying for the subscriptions. May informs Webb that he asked William Lloyd Garrison to write to Frederick William Chesson. May tells Webb that Harriet Beecher Stowe's "Key to Uncle Tom's Cabin" will be published soon. He asks for fifty copies of the "Poetical Instructor - Part 2." May reports the duties paid on the boxes of contributions and gives the total receipts from the Bazaars for a period of years. He asserts that he regards the "Advocate" as very useful to the abolition cause and tells Webb that the "National Anti-Slavery Standard" will be changed in form. May says that the annual meeting of the American Anti-Slavery Society may be held in Brooklyn, but if not, then will likely be held in Syracuse. He mentions an English missionary named William Scott Downey and his book of proverbs
