The final letter is a copy of a letter from the Earl of Carlisle to Joseph Sturge that was dated February 27th, 1856 from Dublin Castle. The Earl of Carlisle acknowledges the receipt of Mrs. Stowe's letter and says that he is glad to be connected with the anti-slavery cause
The next letter is a copy of a letter from the Earl of Shaftesbury to Mrs. Sturge that was dated February 12th, 1856. The Earl of Shaftesbury acknowledges the receipt of Mrs. Stowe's letter
This first letter is a copy of an undated letter from Harriet Beecher Stowe that was written to the Earl of Carlisle, the Earl of Shaftesbury, G. W. Alexander, and Joseph Sturge. Mrs. Stowe says that the fund she collected in England was wholly unsolicited and that she has distributed it among the various anti-slavery factions according to the usefulness of their work. She explains how the money was expended and that the greatest emphasis was placed on the education of African Americans. Mrs. Stowe particularly favors Miss Miner's school for colored girls in Washington, D.C. She praises the American Anti-Slavery Society
