Holograph, signed
Title supplied by cataloger
May describes an interview with William Lloyd Garrison and mentions the purchase of Frederick Douglass' freedom. He hopes that the English Unitarians will support "The Inquirer" and William Hincks. May criticizes "Amicus" for misquoting Dr. William Ellery Channing and tells Estlin that he received volume thirteen of "Chambers' Miscellany." May quotes Garrison as saying that the English "bear away the palm" for ingenuity in framing excuses for slaveholding. May defends Garrison's meddling in English politics. He refers to the loss of the "Great Britain," but discusses at length the wreck of the "Atlantic" on November 27th
