Mary Anne Estlin thanks Maria Weston Chapman for the anti-slavery publications that she sent. Mary Anne Estlin's uncle intends to publish an abstract of the Report of the Massachusetts Society in the Record News, the paper most widely circulated among the Evangelical party. She looks forward to the sketch of the history of the cause, which Maria Weston Chapman has promised. Mary Anne Estlin's father, John Bishop Estlin, intends to publish a brief statement for the information of those not conversant with the subject. News of the effect of the Texas resolution on the American North is anxiously awaited.
This letter is accompanied by a list of contributors and money raised "For the relatives of the imprisoned abolitionists." It also includes the names of subscribers to the Nonresistant and the Liberator.
