Description
Holograph, signed
In this letter, Eliza Lee Cabot Follen refers to the contributions to the anti-slavery fair. Follen said: "Of the many expect nothing they are very close fisted most of them & not very rich -- This does not apply to the Shaws & Russels." Follen is moving into her new house and has to do much with small means: "this is bad for me for I have more heart for your fair than for any house made with hands." She will try to send some tickets for the Van Dyke. Follen sets forth her plan for liberating George Latimer: "I want all colored men women & children & all the abolitionists... to fill the streets that day when he is to be tried." She thinks there will be "hundreds -- nay thousands...If women are in the crowd there will be no violence
