Description

Holograph, signed.Maria Weston Chapman discusses the division in the ranks of the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society. She tells Sarah Pugh to stamp out a drift to the new organization as soon as it appears. She sends copies of the Liberator containing accounts of the actions of the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society in regard to the old and new organizations. Chapman said: "We also send 20 copies of Right and Wrong in Massachusetts." She says that "a simple exhortation to peace & unity" would do little good to the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society. She says that the insurgents must be removed "with earnest supplications for a change of heart."
