Description: May thanks Miss Carpenter for a letter and a parcel of contributions to the Anti-Slavery Fair.  May says that the Fair breaks down prejudices against abolition. May then discusses letters that he was asked to take back with him to America. He is hesitant about this endeavor, for he has heard of strict regulations against passengers on steamships carrying mail.  May quotes the dying address of Reverend Henry Ware to the Unitarian conference in Providence, Rhode Island, as delivered by Reverent Cannett.  May expresses wishes to be remembered to Dr. and Miss Estlin.
Notes: Holograph, signed.
