Description

Holograph, signed.Mary Anne Estlin describes the anti-slavery work in which she is engaged. She misses the help of her aunt and Miss [Fanny N.] Tribe. Mary A. Estlin has written "hosts of letters," in most cases using Miss Tribe's name as her own, since the Estlin name and her "known heresies would neutralize the whole thing." The documents must be in the hands of at least 300 ministers. Estlin has been drawing up counter statements to Dr. Campbell's "infidel" outcry. Mr. Webb's "anti Scoble & Tappan pamphlet has absorbed a great deal of thought." She mentions the notoriety that Dr. Campbell has given L. Tappan and the former's attacks on William Lloyd Garrison. Mrs. Massie calls Dr. Campbell "the Boston scavenger," and is angry at Albert Barnes for "having 'ratted.'" Mary A. Estlin discusses George Thompson.
