"Holograph, signed. Jerusha L. Bird regrets that so little help (for the Boston anti-slavery fair) can be found in Taunton. \"The [female] Society has become extinct.\" Bird infers that those influenced by \"new organization\" are working privately, as Miss [Martha?] Ball's letters have been privately circulated. As \"it is the opinion of all the old friends that a woman will do more than a man, on account of the political excitement,\" they have requested Mr. John A. Collins to send Abby Kelley to stay two or three weeks and lecture."
