notes
"Holograph, signed. Title devised by cataloger. On verso, the letter is addressed to \"Mr. William Lloyd Garrison. Brooklyn. Connecticut.\" On page 2, an additional letter is written to Garrison, signed by \"Henry Wilson,\" with a later annotation indicating it was written by \"Miss Harriet Minot.\" The letter says \"Friend May has gone out in a heavy rain ... [and] has been quite ill for several days,\" before mentioning that they had read \"with a great deal of interest a file of the 'Genius [of Emancipation]' when you and [Benjamin] Lundy were associate editors.\" They rejoice that Garrison's \"devotion to the holy cause of Emanciapation has never been interrupted.\""
