"Holograph, signed. William Lloyd Garrison is sick with a slow fever and a bilious illness. He philosophizes on sickness as a teacher of humility. Samuel J. May is leaving Brooklyn; the congregation there is unable to support a minister. Samuel J. May has received several good calls to be settled elsewhere, but Garrison hopes he will go into anti-slavery work. The bottom half of pages three and four was torn off."
