In accordance with Samuel Joseph May's suggestion, William Lloyd Garrison went to see Dr. White about his eczema. Garrison writes: "I am glad you have received a letter from our thoroughly Irish friend R. D. Webb, and sent a reply to it, which he will greatly prize, as he does all the epistolary favors of his specially cherished friends." Fanny Garrison Villard sends a photograph of herself and her daughter Helen. William L. Garrison regrets being ill when Samuel Joseph May came to visit.
