Note

Holograph, signed
William Lloyd Garrison is uncertain about going to New York on account of his health. Orestes Augustus Brownson's article on slavery, which was printed in the second issue of his Quarterly, was "wholly unworthy of a sound mind." Garrison's strictures on Brownson made Brownson feel badly. As a result, Brownson wrote a long letter to Garrison in the Reformer. Garrison and his wife and friends saw the Grimkés off; he lists the names of the people who were there to say goodbye. Angelina Grimké's closing lecture at the Odeon was the "keystone of the arch." Garrison says: "My annual report is at last out. Bro. Phelps wrote a protest against that part of it relating to the Clerical Appeal, and had it printed---but I am happy to say, both for his sake and the cause, has concluded to suppress it."
On page three, the bottom part of the letter was cut off, including William Lloyd Garrison's signature
