Letter from Oliver Johnson, Anti-Slavery Office, New York, to William Lloyd Garrison, 5 Nov., 1864

Johnson writes to Garrison to refute charges brought against him by Wendell Phillips that he (Johnson) had deliberately delayed publication of "the call of the Cleveland convention" due to his "partizanship for Lincoln". Johnson includes a handwritten copy of Phillips' letter concerning the publication of the call to demonstrate how he had not delayed publication, & refutes claims of partisanship towards Lincoln.
