"Holograph, signed. Richard Davis Webb's letter to Francis Jackson about Webb's philanthropic mission to the famishing Irish will appear in the Liberator this week. Garrison writes: \"You see that we fanatics, here, have been constrained to differ with you, dear Richard Allen, and H. C. Wright, in regard to receiving the donations from the South for the relief of the starving among you; though we all agree with you in pronouncing judgment against the course of the Dublin Committee, in rejecting the aid proffered from London, because it was the proceeds of a theatrical entertainment, and accepting without a scruple whatever may have been given by the slaveholders.\" The \"atrocious war with Mexico\" is not popular. The American arms have been successful. Garrison believes \"the religious sectarists [sic], who hate Catholicism, but do not love Christianity, exhibit much resignation, and no slight share of satisfaction, in view of the war.\" To wish success to the Mexicans exposes Garrison and his circle to the charge of treason. Garrison honors the memory of Daniel O'Connell."
