"Holograph, signed. William Lloyd Garrison tells of his visit to see Joseph Barker, which included a tour of his printing office and examining his steam powered press. Joseph Barker aims to \"effect a revolution in this country\" by providing the people with cheap literature. Garrison considers Joseph Barker a great thinker. Garrison dined with Joseph Lupton of Leeds and in the evening stayed with Mary Brady and Rebecca Brady in Sheffield. Garrison went to various places with friend James Wall and then dined at his home. They had a crowded and animated public meeting at the Quaker meetinghouse in Sheffield. There, Frederick Douglass sold a considerable number of his narrative. The poet James Montgomery was deeply moved. Garrison appealed to James Montgomery to write a poem about American slavery."
