Description
Holograph, signed
Edmund Quincy has written a long letter to John A. Collins with the facts and details of the annual meeting. In reference to Caroline Weston's "transmission of documents to Eng[lan]d," Edmund Quincy remarks that female abolitionists are "more executive than most of the brethren." Edmund Quincy lectured to Quakers in Lynn. While staying with William Bassett, Edmund Quincy saw Abby Kelley and Elizabeth(?) Whittier, the sister of J. G. Whittier, "a little Quakeress with tremendous black eyes." Edmund Quincy tells of a session with a phrenologist named Coombs. He mentions a sermon by Theodore Parker, in which it was stated that the anti-slavery and non-resistance movements were the only manifestations of Christianity without Emersonian or Channingian qualifications
