Summary
Writes to thank Wardlaw for his invitation to visit Scotland. Mentions her surprise at the success of Uncle Tom's Cabin, her belief that the work was divinely inspired, and her hope that its popularity shows Christ has mercy to the cause of abolishing slavery. States she will visit Scotland and notes that she is currently working on a Key to Uncle Tom's Cabin. Stowe published the Key to Uncle Tom's Cabin in 1853 and shortly after left America for a tour of Europe. She visited England, Scotland, France and Switzerland and was met by crowds in each place. Ralph Wardlaw (1779-1853) was a Scottish Congregational minister and a prominent abolitionist.
