Bishop, Francis

Description

Holograph, signed.Title devised by cataloger.Francis Bishop writes to Mary Anne Estlin regarding Mrs. Ruthbone's decline due to her present engagements. He writes of their Unitarian friends in Liverpool not being "alive to the just claims of this subject, & the orthodox friends of abolitionism are fearful as to their religious standing, when asked to aid the American A.S. Society." He writes of his visit with William Isaac Cooke, who is supportive of the movement but would not include his wife's name due to their distance. Mrs. Bishop will do everything in her power to receive contributions but because she is preoccupied with her children, she will not have a chance to purchase any articles. He writes that he will be meeting several Quakers & others at the monthly Peace Committee, but he is anxious at delaying publication. He gives his respects to Mr. Estlin.
