Holograph, signed.
On pages one through three of this manuscript, Eliza Wigham has written the list of contributions sent from Edinburgh and some other localities to the Boston Anti-Slavery Bazaar, including prices for the items.
On pages three through four of this manuscript, is a letter by Eliza Wigham that she presumably wrote to Anne Warren Weston. Wigham says that the contributions for the Boston Anti-Slavery Bazaar were sent yesterday. She tells of the enjoyment derived from seeing American anti-slavery friends in the summer and mentions by name Cornelius Bramhall, James Miller M'Kim, and Harriet Beecher Stowe. Wigham has not yet seen Anne Warren Weston's sisters. Mary Anne Estlin says her father John Bishop Estlin is better.
