Holograph, signed.
William Lloyd Garrison writes Samuel May, Jr.: "Friend Wallcut meant, without fail, to send you Twitchell's agreement and arrangement with us, yesterday, but did not succeed. Accompanying this is a copy of this week's Liberator, in which you will find what you desire, as expressed in Twitchell's own language." John Pierpont's scathing song about slave hunting will be sung at the Grove. Garrison wants Samuel May, Jr., to persuade Thomas Wentworth Higginson to attend and speak at their celebration.
