Letter from William Smeal, Glasgow, [Scotland], to Mary Anne Estlin, [18]53 [May] 17
Description:
William Smeal writes to Mary Anne Estlin in regards to sending their friend Louis Alexis Chamerovzow a report of the Glasgow Emancipation Society which he mentions in the "Anti-Slavery Reporter." He writes that the "Evangelicals" appear at a greater advantage in regards to "pecuniary matters." The circular for the "Anti-Slavery Advocate" has reached 200 monthly. Harriet Beecher Stowe came out for Garrison in Edinburgh. He hopes to see her and her father while they're in London.
