"Holograph, signed with initials. Letter written in pencil. William Lloyd Garrison tells of his trip to New York on the Long Island Sound steamer, during which a tremendous thunderstorm took place. He helped a young Englishwoman find her way to West Philadelphia. Garrison and the woman got on the wrong train. He mentions some of the people he met on the Long Island Sound steamer, including \"the redoubtable James Fisk, Jr.,\" who was wearing \"shining buttons and studs and rings, and an immense shirt bosom, and a porcine carcass. A curiosity indeed!\" In New York, Garrison called on Ellen Dow (a prospective companion for Mrs. Garrison), E. L. Godkin, and the editors of the Independent. He also visited the George W. Benson family."
