Holograph, signedIn this letter, Elizabeth Buffum Chace introduces her sister Lydia Buffum, who is going to Boston with articles for the anti-slavery fair. She fears the present state of the money market "will prevent the success which would otherwise attend this effort." Elizabeth Buffum Chace is "ready to join the non-resistance society as far as entire belief in its doctrines goes but I feel that I am not ready to promise to obey them always in spirit as well as in letter."
