notes
"Holograph, signed. Title devised by cataloger. Legacy catalog card includes a note stating, \"Signature very illegible; might be A.D. Tasker.\" While letter from Parker is written on pages 1-3, a small note is written on page 4 by Samuel May to unknown (possibly William Lloyd Garrison or Robert Folger Wallcut). In this note, May says he \"occasionally\" receives letters from this man, \"a Lib[erator] subscriber, living in the upper part of N[ew] Hampshire.\" May calls him \"a bold, thinking, & honest man\" and says that while he has thought about publishing the letters in the Liberator, \"his hand-writing and his spelling are so bad, & he omits so many words, that it is somewhat difficult to make out.\" He adds, \"I would like to have you look at them.\""
