Holograph, signed.

James Miller M'Kim is surprised that the executive committee in New York has not yet issued the call to meet in Philadelphia, where a house has been procured for this purpose. He thinks that the call should not come from Philadelphia, but from the committee of the National Society. Elizabeth Neall is mistaken in saying that there would "certainly be a mob." M'Kim says: "Our minds however were made up from the first to hold the meeting---mob or no mob." M'Kim does not agree with Maria Weston Chapman that "'mob violence' would do good." In Philadelphia, they have been mob ridden ever since the burning of Pennsylvania Hall, where "the mobocrats had a fair triumph on that occasion." M'Kim asks how long the American Anti-Slavery Society is to continue under the present regime. He objects to the society being under control by the Hopper family. He mentions the price of copies of a mezzotint engraving of Lucretia Mott.
