A little sideboard was made by an apprentice for Maria Weston Chapman's anti-slavery bazaar. Mary Carpenter writes: "I enclose his note as it will show you that interest in the object is not confined to the higher classes." Mary Carpenter asks Maria W. Chapman to have someone answer six questions, here set forth, pertaining to the prices and salability of certain articles sent. The Bristol box may have just arrived. Carpenter comments: "What a different missive from those chests of tea the harbingers of dissention!"
