Maria Weston Chapman tells of her plan to publish "a history of the events that have led to the present state of things in the Anti Slavery cause, with an exposition of the causes of those events, to be entitled 'Right and Wrong no. 4.'" Chapman wishes to have Rodney French's statement concerning the course of agents on the [New York?] Executive Committee in his county. Chapman comments: "My object is accuracy."
