notes
"Holograph, signed with initials. This letter is about Edmund Quincy's speech at F.H. [Faneuil Hall?], with the most important parts written out from memory. He especially wanted to write out \"the part about Judge S. ... I did not think you could put in the licks in a professional way quite as well as I who knew something of the tender places. The part about S[c]roggs & Jeffries particularly I wanted just right.\" Edmund Quincy warned the other abolitionists \"never to let a New Organizer pull them out of the river---because they might be sure it was only done for the purpose of having them to strangle.\" Edmund Quincy wishes the mob had put him down, \"for I deserved it for being in such company.\""
