Description
Holograph, signed
Title devised by cataloger
Writing to Samuel J. May (Recipient), Samuel May Jr. (Writer) talks about a bazaar, and the pricing and distribution of pamphlets. Per Recipient?s request Writer reports about Frederick Douglass and says that there has been nothing special and that Douglass made few remarks at the annual meeting, “evidently felt strangeness in that company.” Writer says he is glad to hear about the progresses of Recipient?s meetings in Syracuse. He then criticizes Unitarians for being sectarian and narrow and “dead to all true and Christian work.” The letter ends with an update about Writer?s family
