Holograph, signed
Edmund Quincy encloses a letter by Samuel May, Jr., that explains the problem of the disposition of the fund left by Francis Jackson. Samuel May recalls that Francis Jackson and Charles F. Hovey were opposed to the use of anti-slavery funds for the support of the National Anti-Slavery Standard. The objections of both Jackson and Hovey were overruled by William Lloyd Garrison. Maria Weston Chapman claimed that it was not of vital importance "that all of the $10,000 should go to the Freedmen, instead of half," but it would be better if it did. The trustees must present their views on the the use of the fund to the Master in Chancery, and Jackson's opinion might affect the Master's decision
