Title devised by cataloger
On verso, the delivery address is "Revd. A. A. Phelps, Boston." It was postmarked on Feb 26 in Sandwich, Ms
In this letter to Amos A. Phelps, Joseph C. Marsh reports on his work as an antislavery agent. He says he had ́a very unfavorable timé in the last quarter. He also explains why it will be difficult to raise funds in the near future. (The area had an unfavorable winter and fishing season, and the general interest in antislavery needs to be raised.) He says he has delivered 23 lectures, formed two new societies, and is now working on building two more societies. He expresses his grief over the clash they had with the Garrison group
