Letter from George Thompson, Matlock, Derbyshire, England, to William Lloyd Garrison, 1850 October 3

George Thompson writes to William Lloyd Garrison informing him of his planned trip to Boston "by the 'Canada' mail steamer" which he hopes will allow him "to take you by the hand on or before the 1st of November." Thompson lists his goals for the trip including, reconnecting with friends and acquaintances "of our common cause" and raising money through lecturing. He asks that Garrison "will believe me as warmly as ever the advocate of the cause of the slave" and to "not believe me mercenary" for needing the money from lecturing as well. He asks for Garrison's help and authorizes him to "communicate the contents of this letter to Francis Jackson, Wendell Phillips, and Edmund Quincy" to further assist him in finding opportunities to lecture.
