This letter concerns the difficulty of holding a meeting of the American Anti-Slavery Society in Syracuse because of the lack of speakers. Theodore Parker and Wendell Phillips cannot attend; Lucy Stone can attend only with difficulty. William Wells Brown may arrive in time from England. Samuel May, Jr., thinks that Charles L. Remond and Rev. Foss can attend. Abby Kelley Foster means to attend. Saturday is to be devoted to the Jerry Rescue Celebration. Shortly after this meeting, William Lloyd Garrison must leave for Pennsylvania and Ohio.
