"Holograph, signed. William Lloyd Garrison thanks Oliver Johnson and Mrs. Sarah Savin for the invitation extended to him and his wife to stay with them in Philadelphia. Garrison declines their invitation and plans to stay with his niece, Anne Percy, instead. Garrison discusses inserting a notice for the Third Decade Meeting of the American Anti-Slavery Society in the New York Tribune. Garrison does not think that Henry Ward Beecher has treated the American Anti-Slavery Society \"fairly and magnanimously.\" In Henry W. Beecher's English speeches, he ignored \"the name and services of George Thompson in our behalf as a nation.\" In the postscript, William Lloyd Garrison writes: \"As the Hutchinsons cannot be with us, we shall probably have to give up the idea of music at our meetings. I shall write to Dr. Abraham L. Cox to ask for the loan of the parchment Declaration of Sentiments in his possession, to be read from at Philadelphia; and request him to send it to your office.\""
