notes
"Holograph, signed. Esther Sturge comments on the charge that John Quincy Adams is not an abolitionist. Sturge believes that \"he is evidently a friend to freedom.\" She criticizes William Lloyd Garrison for his involvement in such a large number of causes. Sturge writes to Maria Weston Chapman: \"Unity of purpose will always carry a point even if there are a variety of shades, & I would not rebuke any who are not entirely with you, less I should make them my enemies, ...\" Sturge quotes Thomas Clarkson's praise of Zachary Macaulay."
