Letter from Sophia Louisa Little, to William Lloyd Garrison and Amos Augustus Phelps
Summary
Sophia Little writes William Lloyd Garrison and Amos Augustus Phelps a religious discourse on slavery, expressing her disagreement with Joseph Boyle's assertion that "God wills to destroy utterly this people", and states her conviction that Jesus will "spare this guilty country" as he would have "spared the cities of the plain if ten righteous men had been found there".
