Letter from James Millter M'Kim, Boston, [Mass.], to George Hughes Hepworth, [July 1864]
Description:
James Miller M'Kim writes George Hepworth asserting his belief that General Banks is a "true" man, and declares that whatever one might say of his implemented system of labor with regards to former, fugitive, and freed slaves in occupied Louisiana, his actions have been committed with the best of intentions of "doing justice to the negro". M'Kim states that Wendell Phillips remains "a puzzle" to them, and admits that he does not understand Phillips.
