Holograph, signed
Jane Wigham has just packed two boxes of contributions for the Boston bazaar. She strongly objects to the Liberator publishing the views of Stephen S. Foster, Parker Pillsbury, and Henry C. Wright on the Holy Scriptures. Wigham tells of her own religious views. She complains of Henry C. Wright's praise of Paine's Age of Reason. Wigham writes: "The great excietement caused by 'Uncle Tom's Cabin'---is likely to do much good, and we were grieved to see H. C. W. trying to undervalue the book---we should be thankful for every auxiliary even though it be not entirely according to our standard---I believe that book has awakened an interest that will never settle down again while American slavery exists." Wigham wants Anne Warren Weston to write to Benjamin Wiffen. She wants to know the price that items sold for at the bazaar. Wilson Armistead's contributions are to be sent to Rochester and Philadelphia
