Holograph, signed

This is apparently a rough draft of a letter. Maria Weston Chapman entrusts Mrs. Louisa Loring's acceptance of this "little memorial of the 24th Anti Slavery Fair--the first from which you have been absent since you & Mrs. Child founded this 'peculiar institution' to which both Anti Slavery friendship & finance are so much indebted."

Following the letter, are the names of donors and the monies contributed to the anti-slavery fair

This letter was written on the blank pages and margins of a printed circular (flier) advertising the Twenty-Fourth National Anti-Slavery Bazaar
