Description
Holograph, signed
William Lloyd Garrison wants George William Benson to attend the meeting at Worcester because the Clerical Appeal will probably be discussed there. Garrison refers to the "criminal" course of the Executive Committee and the Emancipator. Garrison writes: "Only look at it!---Five clergymen, professing to be conspicuous abolitionists, make a public appeal, in which they bring severe and vital charges, not merely against the Liberator, but abolitionists and their cause. Another appeal, backing this up, but still more grave and general in its charges, is issued at Andover, signed by thirty-nine professed friends. Then follows a letter from J. T. Woodbury, one of the 'seventy agents.'" The two clerical appeals and J. T. Woodbury's letter were printed in pro-slavery newspapers. Garrison quotes extracts from the reproachful letters of Elizur Wright and Lewis Tappan. Elizur Wright considers William Lloyd Garrison's reply to Woodbury "sinful."
