Edition Notes

Holograph, signed.

Mary Anne Estlin said in this letter to Anne Warren Weston: "You ought to see the combined assault on you by Campbell, Gutherie, & Scoble, to which they have provoked by the recent showings up of their delinquencies." Estlin quotes from a letter of Mrs. Massie to Miss Grant in which she speaks of "2000 ministers professing evangelical truth & still notoriously pro-slavery." Estlin refers to the "re-echoing of the old stories" on unorthodoxy. Estlin wrote that "the majority deriving their sole acquaintance of you from these sources rest in the impression that slavery is very dreadful, but that abolitionism is worse." The Bristol Anti-Slavery Society has profited from Mary A. Estlin's "twelvemonths' instructions." Extremely orthodox, they are indignant at their churches "being implicated in upholding sin..." Estlin has been preparing an address to the Evangelical Churches of Great Britain, which is sent to church unions and meetings, together with a document prepared by Ed. Mathews, showing the connection of each American church with slavery. Estlin finds the position of the American Anti-Slavery Society very intelligibly stated in the Bazaar Gazette. She assures Anne W. Weston of "our perfect coincidence in your view of Kossuth's course." Wendell Phillips's speech on Kossuth "has enraptured us all." She wishes that he could be sent "to elucidate the British folks." She extols E. Mathews in his courageous stand. He is "branded as one of the infidel Grarrisonians." She asks if Garrison would object to alluding to E. Mathews as being hard at work for the cause in England. James Grant, who brought his daughter to have her eyes cured by John Bishop Estlin, told about an interview with Scoble.
