Letter from Samuel May, Jr., Leicester, to William Lloyd Garrison, Aug.24, [18]57
Description:
Samuel May Jr. asks William Lloyd Garrison, for the accounting purposes, whether Miss Watkins (Frances Ellen Watkins Harper) is still an agent of the American Anti-Slavery Society. May expresses his concern about the way Boston Transcript did not verify Sigma’s claims before publishing his article. On an additional note, May says Charles Lenox Remond cannot attend the [Harwich?] meeting, and discusses who may fill his place.
