"Holograph, signed. Lucretia Mott asks Maria Weston Chapman to invite Caroline Weston and her sisters to come to the annual meeting at Kennett and to stay at Mott's house. Edmund Quincy is also invited to stay there. Lucretia Mott remarks on the prospects of William Garrison's influence in England. The disposition to hear and receive Frederick Douglass at the British & Foreign Anti-Slavery Society's meeting \"seemed a little evidence of repentance at their past mis-doings.\" Lucretia Mott would have preferred that the Standard be less severe in its treatment of this society. Lucretia Mott desires gentle dealings \"even with poor C[assius] M. Clay---so lamentably fallen & degraded.\" She remembers his anti-pacifistic utterances. Clay's paper reaches many in the south, where \"the anti-slavery there is in the True American might do good, as they would see it no where else,\" therefore Lucretia Mott would have the paper continue to circulate. On the other hand, \"those who descend from the higher position which we occupy, & unite with these \"worlds' people,' need to be 'withstood to the face, because they are to be blamed'--- ...\" Lucretia Mott asks why Wendell Phillips cannot come."
