Title
[Letter to] My dear friend Garrison [manuscript]
Description
Holograph, signed
Title devised by cataloger
Samuel May, Jr. returns William Lloyd Garrison's "kind wishes of the New Year", and thanks him for the copy of the volume "Determination". May states his grief at hearing of Garrison's illness, and admonishes him that he is "working [himself] over hard". May states his dismay and regret that he and Garrison cannot see eye-to-eye on "our National present & future" nor on the "attitude and responsibility of the present Administration". May asserts that the chief distinction between himself and Garrison on these matters is Garrison's belief that the redemption of the South is the duty of the Republican party and the North alone, whereas May states that this work is the duty of the "whole American people"
