"Holograph, signed with initials. William Lloyd Garrison arrived yesterday accompanied by dear anti-slavery friends. It rained during most of the trip. While in Springfield, Garrison heard news of George William Benson. Garrison expects trouble at the anniversary meeting in the Tabernacle because of the inflammatory articles in the New York Herald by James G. Bennett. Garrison continued writing this letter at 2 p.m., after the meeting. There was a triumphant, though tumultuous, gathering. A mob was led by Captain Rynders. Garrison finished his speech on religion and country despite the interruptions of the mob. He was followed by William H. Furness, Frederick Douglass, and Samuel Ward."
