Holograph.Edward Morris Davis sends samples of goods for the anti-slavery fair in Boston. He praises the Liberator and Wendell Phillips.

Davis said: "I take the ground that 3rd party is hostile to our soc[iety] ..." Few agree with him. Abby Kelley [Foster] must come and help them out of a critical situation.
