Convers Francis (search for this): chapter 23
To Rev. Convers Francis. Boston, October 25, 1836. I am very glad that you liked Philothea, and that the dedication pleased you. Among my personal friends the book has proved far more of a favorite than I had supposed it would. I have heard the echo of newspaper praise, but have not in fact seen a single notice of i Philothea. For my own sake, I care far less about literary success than I could easily make people believe; but I am glad if this work adds to my reputation, because it will help to increase my influence in the anti-slavery cause. It will be another mite added to the widow's fund for the treasury of the Lord. Every day that I live, I feel more and more thankful for my deep interest in a cause which carries me out of myself.
