Title supplied by cataloger
Estlin acknowledges various letters from May. He reveals the identity of "Amicus" as Frank Boult of Liverpool and explains the situation of "The Inquirer" and its editor, Reverend William Hincks. He tells May not to expect too much from the pamphlet he wrote on abolition. Estlin adds that Frederick Douglass is still in Scotland and that the second edition of "The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass" is published. Estlin speaks of Joseph Barker, who said in a speech that certain Sheffield manufacturers were making Bowie knives with "Death to Abolitionists" stamped on them. He asks May for an estimated number of slaves per year who escape to freedom
