Holograph, signed.
William Lloyd Garrison describes a fatiguing journey in a slow coach. He was informed by George W. Benson that Theodore D. Weld was stoned and wounded but still was not persuaded to leave for Newport. Amos Augustus Phelps is expected to be there. Henry Brewster Stanton and William M. Chace came to Boston to persuade Samuel E. Sewall or Ellis Gray Loring to attend. No answer has come from W. Goodell, G. Smith, or C.T.C. Follen. The Committee wishes Samuel J. May to come.
