Description:
Amos A. Phelps sends to the Executive Committee of the American Anti-Slavery Society a set of resolutions unanimously adopted by the Executive Committee of the Massachusetts Abolition Society, which recommend that the Executive Committee of the American Anti-Slavery Society invite John Scoble to come to the United States and Lecture on emancipation in the British West Indies for a few years.
