(Samuel Joseph?) May delivered Mrs. Helen Eliza Garrison's letter to William Lloyd Garrison. William L. Garrison is in the process of moving his furniture and household possessions. The Westons have promised to take Garrison's cat and to hire Christina (a servant). Garrison has moved four times in sixteen months. At the request of the Board, Garrison will go to New York to settle George Thompson's embezzlement case. Brother Henry sails for St. John with George Thompson's trunks. The piece in the Liberator about Mayor Lyman may cause talk. Garrison writes: "O'Connell in his speech, calls our pro-slavery mobocrats, 'two-legged wolves.'"
