Letter from Frederick Augustus Fiske, Amherst, to Amos Augustus Phelps, June 25 1835
Description:
Frederick Augusts Fiske writes to Amos A. Phelps that Phelps's proposed lecture will do much good in Amherst. He says that there has been few antislavery lectures in the area and a great deal of ignorance in relation to the subject. He comments that the interest upon the antislavery cause grew in Amherst College, and the anniversary meetings in Boston and New York seem to have had a good influence.
