Description
Holograph, signed
On pages one through three of this manuscript, there is a letter by William Lloyd Garrison to George William Benson. Garrison has just learned of George W. Benson's serious injury from an accident traveling from Hampton to Brooklyn. Garrison cannot visit Brooklyn, Conn., this season. Instead, he will take his family Newburyport after July 4. By the fall, Garrison hopes that George W. Benson can arrange to be a state agent. Charles C. Burleigh cannot leave his work in Pennsylvania. They have just had a triumph at the Essex County Society meeting over the intrigues of Charles T. Torrey, Amos A. Phelps, Alanson St. Clair, and Daniel Wise. The vote to let women participate was adopted by a large majority. William Bassett, a non-resistant, was elected president. J. P. Boyce was elected corresponding secretary. Charles T. Torrey and ten other people withdrew to form a rival county society
On page four of this manuscript, there is a separate note by Helen Eliza Garrison to Anna Benson. Helen E. Garrison desires news of mother. The children miss her. Helen E. Garrison and the children accompanied William Lloyd Garrison to Abington. Tomorrow, William Lloyd Garrison will go to Dedham to lecture and Helen will accompany him
