notes: "Holograph. William Lloyd Garrison explains that correspondence was printed in London Times of June 18, between the abolitionist Rev. Moncure D. Conway and J. M. Mason, an emissary and envoy of the Confederate States of America. This disclaimer was written by Executive Committee of the American Anti-Slavery Society in response to the correspondence: \"And whereas, the public may infer from this statement, that Mr. Conway represents or is authorized to speak for the Abolitionists of this country, we---the Executive Committee of the American Anti-Slavery Society---deem it our duty to declare that he has no authority from this Society, nor, as we believe, from any member of it, or any sympathizer with it, to make any such offer,---or, indeed, to enter into any conference with any one on national affairs; and that his visit to England, as far as we can learn, was entirely of his own motion, and that he was neither sent by the Abolitionists, nor is in any just sense their representative. ...\" (This disclaimer is discussed by William Lloyd Garrison in a letter to Oliver Johnson, July 14, 1863; see Call No. Ms.A.1.1 v.6, p.62.)"
