Holograph, signed.
William Lloyd Garrison thanks Isabella Mack (Hinckley) for the details regarding the death and funeral of her father, David Mack. Garrison comments: "It is now useless to regret that no one was present to pay that tribute to his character and valuable services which was so eminently his due; still, I cannot help regretting my absence on an occasion so fitting to delineate his admirable traits."
