"Holograph, signed. William Lloyd Garrison tells of his plans for the anniversary meeting. He writes: \"I do not wish or intend to make any speech during the meetings. Personally, I am tired of speech-making, and, therefore, am glad that we are apparently so near the end of our great conflict.\" The speakers for the opening session are: James Renwick Sloane, Theodore Dwight Weld, and Robert Purvis. Theodore Tilton and Wendell Phillips are secured speakers for the evening session. Geritt Smith donated $100 to the American Anti-Slavery Society. Garrison remarks on the great popularity of Anna E. Dickinson. Dr. George Barrell Cheever may offer a prayer at the opening of the meeting. The committee investigating the condition of colored people wants J. M. W. Yerrinton to \"report proceedings, &c.\" in New Orleans. Garrison does not want his name included in the call of the Progressive Friends' meeting. Wendell Phillips is not going to England."
