Autograph letter addressed to 'My Dear Madam' (Catherine Clarkson?). The sender's signature has been erased, as has the address apart from the country, Dominica

Gives a description of riots in Dominica with the intention of detailing the actual events, rather than the impressions generated by those against the emancipation of slaves. Claims that a census collection led to a fear of a return of slavery which in turn led to rioting. States that there were only a few people involved, few deaths and that order was restored quickly. Makes information known with the understanding that the senders name would not be mentioned publicly.
