"Holograph, signed. On verso, the delivery address is: Miss Caroline Weston. Care of Henry G. Chapman, West St. Boston. The word Roxbury has been crossed out. See Ms.A.5.1 p.36-38 for handwritten transcription; transcribed by unknown person. The letter mentions neighborhood incidents which reveal weakness of abolitionist sentiment. Discusses the deceit of proslavery advocates and the unhappiness of slaves."
