Letter from Luther Wright, Woburn, [Massachusetts], to Amos Augustus Phelps, 1838 May 4
Description:
Luther Wright writes to Amos A. Phelps regarding his inability to raise funds for Phelps. He writes of reports that circulated about him at the last anti- slavery meeting that "are absolutely false, having not the least formulation in truth."
