Sarah Cogan takes much pleasure in contributing to the Boston anti-slavery bazaar and has received from Maria Weston Chapman a number of autographs of "those who had distinguished themselves in the anti-slavery movement." In addition to the autographs received, Sarah Cogan would like the autographs of Wendell Phillips, Frederick Douglass, and others. Sarah Cogan's mother, now nearly eighty years old and with failing eyesight, has knitted a dozen pairs of garters for the bazaar. Her sister, Caroline, has created the pencil drawings, including some drawings of Thomas Clarkson's residence.
