Description
Holograph, signed
Title supplied by cataloger
May says that the discussion at the Hackney meeting has influenced many American Unitarians. He lists the religious papers which published the Edward Tagart letter. May says the current discussion of abolition has induced Dr. Orville Dewey to write a letter about it. May discusses letters written by himself and by Mr. Bishop that were published in "The Inquirer." May complains of the inertia of the Unitarian leaders. He tells Estlin that he hopes to meet William Hincks while he is in the U.S. He expresses pleasure that Joseph Barker has published the work, "American Slavery As It Is: Testimony of a Thousand Witnesses." May hopes for contributions to the fair. He quotes John Caldwell Calhoun on the slavery question and hopes that George Armstrong will answer Dewey. William Lloyd Garrison has gone on a tour of Pennsylvania, Ohio, and New York. The first issue of the "Massachusetts Quarterly Review" is to appear on December 1
