May 15, 1858.
Mr. John Brown,
Chatham, Canada West.
Dear Sir, — I
wrote to you yesterday informing you that a member of the Massachusetts State
Kansas Committee would visit Chatham, to confer about the delivery of the arms
you hold. As I can find no one who can spare the time, I have to request that
you will meet me in New York City sometime next week. A letter to me, directed
to care of John Hopper, 110 Broadway, New York, will be in season. Come as
early as you can. Our committee will pay your expenses.
Truly yours,
George L. Stearns,
Chairman Mass. State
Kansas Committee.
Dr. Howe will go on as soon as he knows you are in New York.
