Dear friend,
Perhaps you
have seen a notice in the last
number or two of the Standard
that Wm Wells Brown is to
lecture on Slavery, also read his
Dramas on the Same, for a few
weeks in this region. He has
requested me to aid in making
some appointments for him,
which I take pleasure in doing.
Consequently I drop you these
few lines to know of you if it
would be desirable to have
him at Phoenixville! If so
you will oblige me by informing
me at an early day when
it will suit for him to come.
His Lectures on Slavery are free.
To his readings he charges
10 cts. As I doubt not but
you have seen notices of his
readings, and thereby know
something of their character,
I need not go to the trouble
of enlightening you further
at this time. Two meetings close
together would be desirable.
I will send you a bill
or two so you can see how
he advertises, and in case
you Conclude to make arrangement
for him, I will on being
informed sent you a sufficient
number of bills to supply
your neighborhood
Please let me hear from
you at your earliest
convenience, and oblige
Yours truly,
Wm Still
