Letter from George Thompson, Marblehead, [Massachusetts], to Isaac Knapp, 1835 August 27

George Thompson writes to Isaac Knapp seeking his advice on setting up and printing his progress reports on Massachusetts antislavery news for England. He suggests printing it on "folio post sheets." He would take fifty impressions of each letter and send as many as necessary to Europe and "keep the rest to distribute among my friends should I be spared to return." He asks what the cost of this might be and to send his response to Whittiers. He plans on going to Plymouth, New Hampshire with Whittier.
