date: "October 25, 1846"
notes: "Holograph, signed. William Lloyd Garrison hopes Elizabeth Pease (Nichol) will visit New England. He thanks her for the gift of the purse with 20 sovereigns. He considers her \"one of the best women of the age.\" In the postscript on page five, Garrison outlines the recent speaking tour. There was no Liverpool man on the platform. Garrison says: \"The American influence, through commercial interchange, is very considerable; and the Evangelical Alliance is too 'respectable' a body for the very 'respectable' in society to join in assailing it for the present.\" There were \"malignant attempts\" made by the partisans of the Free Church and the Evangelical Alliance to defame Garrison's religious character. There is only one church available in Dundee. Garrison outlines his plans till the time of his sailing on Nov. 4th. Attached to this letter is a clipping about Garrison's embarkation on the steamship Acadia in Liverpool and the sendoff given by friends Frederick Douglass, H.C. Wright, and George Thompson."
