"Holograph, signed. When Samuel Joseph May accepted a lecture assignment, he hoped to find a suitable speech among his manuscripts and papers. Not having found something and having read very little of late \"of the doings of the Colonization Society,\" he suggests that his friend Oliver Stearns or Adin Ballou would \"more than supply\" his place."
