If the box filled with donations for the Boston anti-slavery fair cannot be sent from Liverpool by steamer on the 18th, it will leave on the 4th [of December]. Isabel Jennings remarks on the contents of the box, including some ridiculous articles it seemed better to send them rather than to offend their donors. "R.D. Webb seems to think they have done pretty well in Dublin---from what he writes I think their contributions must far exceed ours."
