SUPPORT FOR THE FIGHT AGANIST SLAVERY FROM ENGLAND: the recipient of the first letter, Thomas C. Ryley of Wigan, is listed among contributors to the William Lloyd Garrison testimonial. Constance, recipient of the other two letters, was presumably his daughter. The original signed photograph (inscribed "Very truly Yours/ H.B. Stowe"), sent with the second of these letters, is pasted onto one of the album leaves, with the signature present but detached.
