Holograph, signed.
William Lloyd Garrison describes his poor health caused by intellectual and moral excitement and the lack of sleep. He is concerned over the sudden illness of Mrs. Jackson of Providence; he wishes that she would try a Thompsonian doctor. William L. Garrison sends "sympathies of my heart" to Phoebe Jackson. He commends Amos Augustus Phelps's house as a desirable habitation. Garrison must attend the Young Men's Anti-Slavery Convention in Worcester. He will go tonight with Oliver Johnson to Mrs. Chapman's; they will act as the Publishing Committee and report on the Peace Convention.
