Holograph
Maria Weston Chapman had "excellent fun" at the Non-Resistant meeting. She gives a sketchy account of the various amusing features, such as a ballot box labelled "Pandora's box with no hope at the bottom." Chapman repeats a report of a speech supposedly made by James G. Birney at a Liberty Party meeting, in which he quoted Virgil's reference to voluprae obscenae (unclean birds), likening these to the Locofocos
Incomplete letter. This letter was written on the blank pages and margin of a flier (printed matter) announcing the "Eleventh Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Fair" to be held Dec. 24, 1844. The letter is dated Boston, Feb. 8, 1844, and is sponsored by 29 women, including Maria W. Chapman and Caroline Weston
