Letter, George L. Stearns to E. B. Whitman Author: Stearns, Geo. L. (George Luther), 1809-1867 Date: November 14, 1857 In response to several letters from Whitman about money, George Stearns wrote from Boston to clarify a few issues. He gave an account of available funds and provided instruction on the distribution and/or sale of clothing for the Kansas emigrants. Stearns also commented on his support for Brown which included "authority to draw on me for money" if necessary "to establish order by force." He felt circumstances were apparently changing for the better--"I should not be willing to have any of my funds used for that purpose." Location of Original: KSHS Call Number: George L.
