Holograph, signed.

On pages one through three of this manuscript, there is a letter by William Lloyd Garrison to Richard Davis Webb. Garrison is now at the house of Arthur Naish in Birmingham. George Thompson and William Lloyd Garrison came down from London yesterday. Frederick Douglass came from Worcester, arriving here at about the same time. Frederick Douglass has since had enthusiastic public meetings in Exeter and Bristol. Garrison says: "Our friend Bishop, at Exeter, is an admirable co-worker, and spared no pains to make our visit an eminently successful one." Garrison spoke his mind to the Quaker banker John Dymond about the Broadstreet Committee. Garrison addressed the "moral suasion" Chartists on reform. The "Evangelical Alliance has died"; they plan to have a great public meeting about the doings of the Alliance on Sept. 14. Mary Howitt will soon complete a sketch of Garrison's life.

On page four of this manuscript, there is a separate letter by George Thompson to Richard Davis Webb. William Lloyd Garrison and Joseph Sturge had a conversation lasting two hours on the conduct of the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society. The coalition was impossible. Frederick Douglass is to meet William Lloyd Garrison in Sheffield. Garrison will go to Leeds to see Joseph Barker.
