"Holograph, signed with initials. There were two hundred people who attended William Lloyd Garrison's lecture last night. Most of the people were from Florence, Mass., and other places. In the lecture, Garrison denounced popular religion. He knows of no other place \"more dead than Northampton.\" Garrison writes: \"Were it not for the position of the clergy and the churches every where, how speedily would the Anti-Slavery cause be triumphant in all the North!\" Garrison visited the \"new Insane State Asylum, and was surprised and delighted at the immense scale on which it is laid out, and the almost unequalled beauty of its location.\" On page four of this manuscript, there is an unrelated diagram presumably of unidentified streets and buildings."
