Description

Holograph, signed.Richard Davis Webb's sister Deborah and her family have at last reached Australia, where they like the climate, the people, and their prospects. John Scoble and Lewis Tappan have published a reply to "certain charges, etc." and Richard D. Webb has been preparing an answer to their reply, "at such length that I have 2 pages for their one." Richard D. Webb and the Estlins have worked hard on this and other anti-slavery matters. Webb praises Mary A. Estlin and describes her as so "thin you might almost blow her away. A box of Liberty Bells arrived at Liverpool. William P. Powell of New York has loaned Richard D. Webb daguerreotypes of George Thompson, William Lloyd Garrison, and Wendell Phillips. Webb asks why Edmund Quincy is silent.
