Description

Holograph, signed.This letter concerns the box prepared for the Boston fair, which will leave with the steamship on December 4th. The hint about the tartans was welcome, for they want to know what articles would be the most salable. Miss Elizabeth Pease (Nichol) sent 5 pounds to be expended on the box, and she is also sending the picture of Cobden and Bright. Mrs. Wigham, the late Jane Smeal of Glasgow, is taking a deep interest in the cause. Mrs. Mary Welsh is enclosing a note from Miss Cogan, a liberal yearly contributor the the Edinburgh box. Miss Cogan requested an autograph of Dr. (William Ellery) Channing. Mrs. Mary Welsh regrets (John A.) Collins's illness and praises his faithful stand under persecution. Henry C. Wright is expected in Edinburgh to address a total abstinence meeting and is to stay with Mrs. Mary Welsh.
