Samuel May, Jr., has put the contents of the box sent by Dr. John Bishop Estlin into "12 little papers, each containing a portion, (6 of them a lock), of the hair of the late Ram Mohun Roy." If they are not sold at the anti-slavery fair, they are to be returned. He gives Rev. William James credit for "getting up the offering from this place to the Anti-Slavery Fair." Mr. James is the junior minister of Lewin's Mead Chapel. Dr. John B. Estlin presided at the annual meeting in London of the British & Foreign Unitarian Association.
