DescriptionThe Rev. Samuel J. May acknowledges the receipt of William Still’s letter; requests the names of “Uncle Peter's" [Peter Still's] wife and children, of the place where they live, of their owner, and of any persons near them who would be sympathetic to the cause of freeing them, to have this information ready to furnish to May's kinsman in Boston, if the latter agrees to help; wonders if Peter should (at least publicly) abandon his quest to free them; and notes that he has 200 dollars of Peter Still's money which is earning seven percent interest. This item is an enclosure in William Still’s letter of November 9, 1853, addressed to Peter Still.
