Title supplied by cataloger
May informs Estlin that he met with William Hincks and that William Lloyd Garrison has been ill in Cleveland, Ohio. He says that "The Inquirer" deteriorated after Hincks' departure as editor. May states that Frederick Douglass is planning to start a paper in Cleveland and writes more about his assertions concerning Dr. Francis Parkman. May condemns Edward Tagart and his reply to Estlin, along with William Greenleaf Eliot of St. Louis and Reverend Theodore Clapp of New Orleans. May summarizes the Garrisonian philosophy and says that abolitionists do not denounce people for not joining their societies. He objects to expediency and double dealing. May thinks that Count Holinski would help with the French edition of "A Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass." In an added page written on October 1, May offers his support for the proposed reply to "the Boston invitation." May says that Henry Clarke Wright has returned after an absence of five years
