"Holograph, signed. Title devised by cataloger. Boston Public Library (Rare Books Department) manuscript composed in black ink on pale blue paper with an embossed logo of a circle containing flowers in the head- spine corner. Just above the logo, a small checkmark has been drawn in pencil, while beneath the salutation the number \"125\" has also been written in pencil. Above the salutation, the words, \"From William Shortt\" are written and underlined in pencil. In the head- fore corner, there is a circular purple stamp containing the words, \"Garrison MSS.\" On the third page, below the postscript, William Lloyd Garrison has written, \"Some time or other I would wish for a few lines from you to keep me ... [hole in page]\" before signing the paragraph \"W.L. Garrison.\" On the verso, the letter is addressed to \"William Lloyd Garrison Esq of America, W. Browns Temperance Hotel Clayton Sqr. Liverpool\". It also bears a one penny postage stamp, the \"penny red,\" stamp featuring Queen Victoria. It has two postmark stamps, one blue circular stamp reading \"Liverpool No 3 1846 A\" and another orange circular stamp that reads \"3 No 2 1846 H\"."
