"Holograph, signed. Frederick Douglass does not \"doubt the purity of intention\" which led Maria Weston Chapman to write about him to Richard Davis Webb. Yet Douglass would have thought it more friendly if she had chosen to give her counsel directly to him \"and free from what I must yet regard an uncalled for and invidious comparison of myself and Mr. Buffum.\" George Thompson urged Douglass to attend the British & Foreign Anti-Slavery Society meeting, mainly in the interest of the Free Church agitation. Douglass told the meeting that he was an old organizationist. In Carlisle, England, Douglass secured contributions for the Boston anti-slavery fair."
