Title:
Letter from George Thompson, London, [England], to Richard Davis Webb, 1846 Nov[ember] 16
Description:
George Thompson writes to Richard Davis Webb(?) in regards to the articles he has seen and states, "I have neither the time nor the strength to notice the many false and eroneous statements of our opponents." He writes that the articles in the Universe please "those only who like its Editor...no man reads it for sound information." He writes about responding to another article in the Reporter and says he will "bide my time. The article on the League is grossly dishonest...the active members of the Comm. have made it their business for 6 years to traduce the Old Organization party and especially its noble Chief-Garrison."
