Holograph, signed.

With the help of Sarah Pugh, Lucretia Mott has obtained the desired copy of the letter, sent herewith (and copied in this manuscript). Lucretia Mott hopes that Mary [Grew] "will not be new-organized by her intimacy with those of that class with you. She is now in Boston. We regard her as on of our most valuable Anti-Slavery laborers, ..." Mary Grew is "advancing in her views of woman's 'appropriate sphere.'" Lucretia Mott rejoices that Mrs. Lydia Maria Child "is doing so much for the cause & for woman by acquitting herself so nobly in the Editorial chair." William Henry Furness says the Standard is becoming one of the best papers in the country. James Sloan Gibbons recently showed Lucretia Mott a letter he received from Maria Weston Chapman; Lucretia Mott sympathizes with the Chapmans in "the loss of their little Gertrud," and hopes for news of their return from Haiti with Henry Grafton Chapman's health restored. Lucretia Mott is forwarding a copy of her husband's "Three Months in Great Britain."

On page three of this manuscript, there is a "True Copy" of a letter by Melania Ammidon to the [Philadelphia Female Anti-Slavery Society?], April 15th, 1836. This letter was presumably copied by Lucretia Mott. Melania Ammidon sends the friendly regards of the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society, dwelling on their joint labors in "our holy cause." A letter by the Philadelphia Female Anti-Slavery Society was presented at the last quarterly meeting of the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society and a vote was taken on the propriety of sending delegates to the American Society. Melania Ammidon analyzes the vote and explains that "we are ourselves anxiliary to neither society." She mentions the proposed plan of supporting an agent for Suffolk and Norfolk counties.
