Description

George Thompson relays to Garrison the events of his past few days in New York, recounting having passed a pleasurable visit to Oliver Johnson at the Anti-Slavery Office, and in having seen, at various points, Susan B. Anthony, Parker Pillsbury, Theodore Tilton, Wendell Phillips, and Jessie Benton Fremont. Thompson assures Garrison that the meeting "is pronounced a success", and that his speech seems to have been satisfactorily received by the audience. Thompson closes by informing Garrison that he will depart for Boston the following day.
