"Holograph, signed. William Lloyd Garrison will probably not attend the (Rhode Island?) convention, but he will send a letter to be read and resolutions to be adopted. Garrison gives these instructions to George William Benson: \"As soon as you get your call printed, with the signatures, do not fail to send a copy of it, immediately to Boston, for insertion in the Liberator.\" Garrison urges sending petitions to Congress. Garrison writes: \"The blustering of the southern members in Congress is ludicrous enough. The knaves and cowards! They will soon find that humanity and conscience are not so easily or willingly surrendered by us, as they would fain imagine.\""
