notes
"Holograph, signed. Oliver Johnson explains the enclosure of eighteen dollars in this letter. He expresses pleasure in Maria Weston Chapman's report of the fair printed in the last Liberator. Johnson says: \"By the way, in speaking of the Harp purchased for the Prison, you located Mary Anne at Auburn instead of Sing Sing. The places are some 300 miles apart. But no matter.\" The reception for Cassius Clay was satisfying; people applauded the sentiments when coming from him, \"for which all faithful abolitionists have suffered reproach and persecution.\" Oliver Johnson wishes an account for the Tribune of the meeting this week. If Maria W. Chapman cannot do it, \"Edmund Quincy perhaps will.\""
