Description

Holograph, signed.James Miller M'Kim denies the statement in one of Maria Weston Chapman's letters that he felt that his "brother's services had not been appreciated." He wants to know if anything can be done to produce a more efficient "national committee," (perhaps a reference to the executive committee of the American Anti-Slavery Society). He thinks an amicable solution should be possible. He objects to David Lee Child's Whig bias, which he thinks should not be so apparent in the National Anti-Slavery Standard. He disapproves of the Garrisonian opposition to the Liberty Party. He will send the engraver's plate of the portrait of Lucretia Mott whenever Maria W. Chapman wants it.
