"Holograph, signed. William Lloyd Garrison informs Mrs. Maria Weston Chapman of Francis Jackson's death. Garrison writes: \"Our noble and honored friend, Francis Jackson, saw 'the last of earth' yesterday morning, at 7 o'clock. His exit was somewhat sudden, at last, and no doubt in some degree hastened by his late excursion to Plymouth, in company with Mr. Heywood. It proved too much for his poor, worn-out system. He died quietly and serenely, retaining his senses to the last. We shall all heavily feel the loss.\" Garrison comments on how their abolitionist ranks are thinning out with the recent death of these friends: Mrs. Earle, E. L. Capron, Philbrick, Theodore Parker, Mrs. Follen, Miss Cabot, Lucia Weston, E. G. Loring, \"and now dear Francis Jackson!\""
