May informs Miss Carpenter that he has been hoping for an expression of disapproval of the Fugitive Slave Law by the English Unitarians. He says that Dr. Francis Parkman has opposed the passage of any resolution concerning slavery by the American Unitarian Association. May expresses regret for the course taken by Miss Carpenter's brother, Russell Carpenter, who is viewed as "hostile to the opponents of slavery." May mentions a lecture on popery by Miss Carpenter's brother Philip Carpenter that "The Christian Inquirer" refused to print. He states that he thinks Russell Carpenter is too attached to the Unitarian denomination and explains why he abandoned the Unitarian clergy. He tells Miss Carpenter that he doubts if he will be able to get her poems published in the United States.
