Letter from Jesse Stedman, Springfield, Vermont, to William Lloyd Garrison, [18]55 May 1
Jesse Stedman writes to William Lloyd Garrison discussing an article appearing in the Liberator on April 6th about the "difference in opinion in the British Board of Commissions for foreign missions in regard to the antislavery principles of the American Board". Stedman also encloses a copy of the Chrisitian Press (not included) "which sets the matter at rest forever in regard to the proslavery character of the American Board." He tells Garrison that he "rejoices" with him "in the prospect of the removal of Judge [Edward G.] Loring" and remarks "What a change you have witnessed since you were mobbed by Gentlemen of property & standing 'in the streets of Boston.'" After the signature, Stedman praises Garrison for including excerpts from Southern newspapers in the Liberator, commenting "You cannot do the cause a better service than to continue them copiously."
