Title:
Letter from James Miller M'Kim, Phil[adelphi]a, [Pa.], to Arthur Albright, Dec[ember] 19 / [18]64
Description:
James Miller M'Kim writes Arthur Albright that his last letter had reached him just as he was departing on business relating to the Freedmen, and that his colleagues, with whom he had left the letter, had read it with "much interest and satisfaction". M'Kim expresses his willingness to travel to England if in "doing so I should be in the way of my duty". M'Kim sends to Albright several newspapers for his consideration, and requests that Albright offer him his judgements on the subjects reviewed therein once he has been able to read them. M'Kim relates to Albright an overview of national and state antislavery societies.
