Elizabeth A. Livermore thanks Maria Weston Chapman for her inspiring letter of a year ago. Elizabeth A. Livermore sent Maria W. Chapman's notice to the Free Soil and the Republican, the nearest anti-slavery papers in Concord. Because she was taking care of a little invalid orphan, Elizabeth A. Livermore could not do more, but she assures Maria W. Chapman of her strong anti-slavery convictions. Elizabeth A. Livermore writes: "Kansas is the great epic of this century and I feel as if I could be almost heroic to help her fight her battles." Livermore requests the annual report of the American Anti-Slavery Society's proceedings.
Call No. Ms.A.9.2 v.29, p.41C is an unrelated printed religious poem entitled: Hymn to be sung at the Music Hall, Boston, December 4, 1859.
