Edward Morris Davis gives some advice to Maria Weston Chapman regarding mail deliveries. He is going to publish some tracts. He doubts if he could write anything worthwhile for the Liberty Bell. He comments on the prospects of a literary contribution from Lucretia Mott. He praises Mary Grew as a writer and as an abolitionist. Edward M. Davis will sell copies of the Liberty Bell at the Philadelphia anti-slavery fair in spite of objections. He wants Maria W. Chapman to persuade Wendell Phillips to come to a meeting in December.
