Holograph, signed.
William Lloyd Garrison corrects the erroneous announcement made in the Liberator by giving the correct date of Anna E. Dickinson's lecture. He tells of negotiations with Miss Dickinson regarding the lecture. Garrison writes: "I feel that Anna, though young, ought to be encouraged to take the lecturing field; and that it will be to her an excellent means of development and education." Garrison is still suffering from bronchial troubles. He has not been invited to visit Washington. He mentions a "mobocratic" assault on Wendell Phillips in Cincinnati.
Includes an envelope with the delivery address: Oliver Johnson, Editor Anti-Slavery Standard, New York City, N.Y.
