In this letter, Mary Anne Estlin encloses some memoranda pertaining to the box sent from Bristol, England, containing items for the Boston anti-slavery fair. Mary Anne Estlin quotes a letter written by her father, John Bishop Estlin, to Mrs. Wigham, describing his feeling at parting from William Lloyd Garrison in Liverpool. Mr. [Henry] Clapp seems in great favor with the peace and temperance advocates. Mr. John B. Estlin declined an invitation to meet him at Miss Carpenter's house. The committee for the new League will meet at the Mary Anne Estlin's house tomorrow. Mary Anne Estlin is grieved to learn of Mrs. [Eliza Lee] Follen's poor health; has long loved Mrs. Follen for her published works.
