Description
Holograph, signed
Title supplied by cataloger
May is very indignant over a letter from William Hincks to the editor of "The Inquirer" criticizing the manners of the abolitionists. May believes that Hincks has not been friendly to the abolitionists, but says that he is pleased with John Lalor's method of response. May recommends an article by the Unitarian Reverend Nathaniel Hall on the churches and the abolitionists. May informs Estlin that Train's packet line carried letters free of charge. He mentions "A Sketch of the History of Newbury" by Joshua Coffin, who was secretary of the first Anti-Slavery Society. May requests Estlin to write a letter to Coffin in order to ask for the early history of the abolition movement, so that it might be "put on record in a permanent shape." He explains William Lloyd Garrison's comment concerning Dr. Snell of North Brookfield. May expresses doubt that William Wells Brown will go to England and says that the American and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society is practically extinct
