Holograph, signed "Your loving Father."
Francis Jackson Garrison is preparing an account of his and William Lloyd Garrison's trip to England "to be read to the Conversational Club next Thursday evening." Last night, William Lloyd Garrison went with Francis Jackson Garrison to the [Boston] Museum "to see Madame Modjeska in the character of Adrienne." Mrs. John Mawson of Gateshead, England, wrote that her father died. Dr. George Putnam is laid up with an infected arm. George A. Blanchard's daughter is preparing to enter Smith College. Parker Pillsbury is going to give a lecture in Paine Memorial Hall "this forenoon." William Lloyd Garrison warns Fanny Garrison Villard against entertaining too much. Henry Villard is to be congratulated if he succeeds in "making a desirable arrangement" with competing railroads.
