Description
Holograph, signed
Mary Carpenter tells about some of the gifts sent for the Boston anti-slavery fair, mentioning that Mrs. Eliza L. Follen has particularly requested the drawing of Mary Carpenter's house. Carpenter encloses a poem by Coleridge in which the river otter is immortalized. Carpenter has sent a beautiful poem to Mrs. Follen, which Mary W. Chapman is at liberty to print under certain restrictions. She suggests that Chapman send over a number of papers giving a brief account of the fair. Carpenter recalls that Clarkson, Granville, Sharp, and Wilberforce were toiling "on through a gloomy night." She quotes Wendell Phillips: "I do not know that I was born to abolish the slave trade, but I know that I was born to do my duty."
