Invitation to the 27th Subscription Anniversary from Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society, Petersboro, [New York], to Maria Weston Chapman, 1839 April 6
Description:
A printed invitation from "the anti-slavery families" to unknown to attend the 27th subscription anniversary at the Music Hall on January 23rd. A list of names on the invitation follow including the hours of reception by day, 11 to 4.
Holograph, signed.
Title devised by cataloger.
The card catalog indicates this invitation was set in "[1859?]" but someone wrote in pencil "1861" next to the date on the manuscript and I am unable to determine what year exactly this anniversary took place. The card catalog indicates that the list of names on the invitation is the same as the previous anniversary invitation except for the absence of Abby Francis and Eliza Lee Follen, who died on January 26, 1860.
