"Holograph. Richard Davis Webb presumably wrote this letter to Caroline Weston. The beginning and end of this letter are missing. On the first page of this manuscript, the first few sentences have been crossed out. Richard Davis Webb visited the Estlins. The Estlins are considered \"a little wild when they begin talking about your faction.\" Dr. John Bishop Estlin has done more for the anti-slavery cause than anyone else in the United Kingdom. Webb mentions a letter from Dr. Estlin to Anna Richardson \"in defense of Garrison & the Am. A-S Society, and pointing out the comparitive uselessness of the Free Labor movement.\" Webb met an uncompromising Non-Resistant at Derby named George Sunter. He visited his daughter's boarding school at Chesterfield. And he visited Joseph Barker at Wortley, whom he tried to dissuade from emigrating to the United States. He comments on the letters between Harriet Martineau and Henry G. Atkinson. [Letters on the Laws of Man's Social Nature and Development, by Harriet Martineau, was published in 1851.] Anne Warren Weston's report of the anti-slavery fair was \"absolutely grand.\""
