"Holograph, signed. William Lloyd Garrison tells of his visit with Gerrit Smith. There, he saw General John Cochrane, \"who is on the Fremont ticket.\" He also saw Gerrit Smith's son and Miss Fitzhugh. Garrison writes: \"It must be apparent, I think, to all but the blindest of the blind, that the Fremont movement has proved an abortion; and the best thing that its nominees and its partisans can do, for themselves and for their country, is to accept what is inevitable, and join the general mass of loyal men in sustaining Mr. Lincoln, and thus save the country from the shame and calamity of a copperhead triumph.\" Garrison viewed the country around Peterboro and thought it was \"'a goodly country' to behold.\" Garrison will be in Syracuse on Friday."
