[Letter to] My dear sir

by

Hill sends a message to Reverend Seth Alden by way of May that ill health prevents his attendance at the October 30th meeting at Leicester to confer on the propriety of calling a convention on slavery. Hill adds that he doubts the effectiveness of conventions and public declarations by ministers and that he thinks abolitionist movements retard emancipation. He believes that ministers should work individually against slavery.
