[Philadelphia: 1790]. 2pp. Folio. Old horizontal folds with a short split at a blank margin. Caption title, as issued. Very Good.

This scarce Epistle is signed in type at the end by the Clerk, William Grover. No other contemporary printings issued. It applauds "what you write respecting your addresses to the President, and Congress of the United States, - your remonstrance on behalf of the oppressed black people . . . The subject of the abolition of the slave trade remains before Parliament, and it is our earnest desire that it may be soon brought to a favorable issue."
