500 $aEdmund Quincy reports on an informal meeting of the Dedham Female Anti-Slavery Society. As the majority will probably side with the New Organization, the question arises as to whether "the Old Platform women" should form a new society or should pass resolutions that they will cooperate with the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society and the Massachusetts Society. Edmund Quincy is inclined to the latter plan, "as the necessity of exclusively women's Societies seems to be superseded by the admission of them on equal terms in the men's societies." He wants to Maria Weston Chapman's opinion. Edmund Quincy comments that "Mrs. Houghton seems to be a Mary Parker in little ..." Edmund Quincy lectured in Haverhill yesterday to a full audience. He sends a letter from A. Tappan implying a refusal to insert a non-resistant letter in the Anti-Slavery Reporter.
