<mods:note>Holograph, signed.</mods:note>
<mods:note>On pages 1-3 of this manuscript, there is a letter by Jane Elizabeth Hitchcock to Maria Weston Chapman. At the suggestion of Abby Kelley [Foster], Jane E. Hitchcock asks Maria W. Chapman to urge Wendell Phillips and Edmund Quincy to attend the convention in Philadelphia on December 23rd. If Thomas Earle will "advocate his peculiar views," those versed in the "non-voting" theory will be needed to answer him. Hitchcock expatiates on the wrongness and effect of Earle's views. Hitchcock comments that "there is not probably another place in the U.S. so favorable to the Dissolution question as this." The influence of the Covenanters and Friends has prepared the way for the discussion. Hitchcock said: "Our reception in Pennsylvania was truly gratifying." Dr. Bartholomew Fussel is journeying with Jane E. Hitchcock [and Abby Kelley Foster]. Most of the anti-slavery in this region is among Hicksite Quakers.</mods:note>
<mods:note>On pages 3-4 of this manuscript, there is a letter by Abby Kelley Foster to Maria Weston Chapman. Foster emphasizes the necessity of Wendell Phillips and Edmund Quincy coming to Philadelphia. Foster said: "There is not except in the city any of the third party spirit such as you see in N.Y. and N.E. ...Now we have exhausted our stock of arguments ...and they are almost persuaded to be comeouters ...Edmund [Quincy] is needed to show them that Liberty Party is the old traitor, New Organization ..."</mods:note>
