notes
Holograph.
William Lloyd Garrison presumably wrote this letter to James Manning Winchell Yerrinton. Garrison writes: "Please not to forget that the final hearing before the Committee on Capital Punishment will be had this afternoon, (probably at 3 o'clock,) in the Hall of the House of Representatives. Pray, be 'in at the death,' if you can. Yours, to hang the gallows."
The bottom of page one of this letter was cut off and William Lloyd Garrison's signature is missing.
