Holograph, signed "Your loving Father."
William Lloyd Garrison discusses his plans to visit Wendell Phillips Garrison. He also intends to see George William Benson, "who is in a very feeble condition." William Lloyd Garrison will go to the Progressive Friends meeting in Longwood. William Lloyd Garrison says: "Our niece, Anna Percy, will act as our housekeeper until Fanny returns." He discusses the domestic problems caused by the helplessness of Mrs. Garrison. He sympathizes with Edwin Lawrence Godkin "in the loss of his estimable wife." Lucretia Mott visited the other day.
