Item Information

Title:
Letter from Harriet Beecher Stowe, [Andover, Massachusetts], to William Lloyd Garrison, 1825 Feb[ruar]y
Description:
In this letter to Amos A. Phelps, William Twining discusses the change in the price of musical instruments in Boston and asks for payment for the instruments Phelps purchased from him. In addition, Twining writes his desire for Phelps to use his influence to alter the name of the society in which they both belong. He is "convinced that its present title is a very unhappy appendage. You can never help to obtain high degree of respect as a Society from decent sober people while this is retained."
