- John Bishop Estlin begins this letter with a discussion of mail deliveries, addresses, and the European travels of the Weston family. He mentions the Fugitive Slave Law meeting in Faneuil Hall. He does not blame the blacks for forcibly resisting arrest under the law. He says the British & Foreign Anti-Slavery Society won't do more than pass resolutions of disapproval. George Thompson arrived safely in America, and a book of engravings and a tray were sent to him. Estlin tells of H. Box Brown's financial distress. He mentions Dr. Gannett, R. Carpenter, praises Theodore Parker's stand, but criticizes William Wells Brown's impassioned language in his appeal for the bazaar. The English people think the abolitionists are retarding the emancipation of the slaves. J. B. Estlin discusses the state of his health and the subject of illness in general. He describes his European travels. They saw a student duel in Germany
