Item Information

Title:
Letter from George Armstrong, Clifton, Bristol, [England], to Samuel May, Nov. 13, 1844
Description:
Armstrong reports the arrival of the American reply to the address on slavery from Great Britain and Ireland. The reply and the letter of transmittal were dated May 15 and September 30, 1844, respectively. Armstrong is moderately satisfied with the reply, although the long delay suggests to him that the committee appointed to draft the reply avoided its responsibility by allowing other matters to interfere unnecessarily.
