Edward Morris Davis sends samples of goods for the anti-slavery fair in Boston. He praises the Liberator and Wendell Phillips. He says that "our Ex Com" had a long meeting about the use of its offices by the Liberty Party. The use of offices was refused. Edward M. Davis said: "I take the ground that 3rd party is hostile to our soc[iety] ..." Few agree with him. Abby Kelley [Foster] must come and help them out of a critical situation.
