notes
"Holograph, signed with initials. William Lloyd Garrison gives the names of the twelve people who organized the New England Anti-Slavery Society on Jan. 6, 1832. Five people are still living, namely William Lloyd Garrison, Oliver Johnson, John E. Fuller, Moses Thacher, and Benjamin C. Bacon. He doesn't know whether Stillman B. Newcomb is still living. Garrison is glad that Oliver Johnson is publishing some of his reminiscences about the anti-slavery conflict. Garrison was disappointed that John Greenleaf Whittier \"did not make more of the Philadelphia A. S. Convention of 1833 in the Atlantic Monthly for January.\" Garrison praises Oliver Johnson's sketch of Henry Ward Beecher in the last issue of the Christian Union. Garrison will try to write a biographical sketch of Benjamin Lundy. Garrison asks Oliver Johnson whether he knows anything about Martin H. Bovee, an opponent of capital punishment."
