Description
Holograph, signed
William Lloyd Garrison thanks Oliver Johnson for the letter of congratulations regarding his recovery. Garrison, in turn, congratulates Oliver Johnson on his recovery from "a huge boil." Garrison describes the suffering he experienced from eczema and says he is now getting better. Garrison admires the "course pursued by The Independent, in regard to all theological matters." A Greek admirer, Photius Fisk, will erect a monument to Henry Clarke Wright in Swan Point Cemetery. Garrison tells about Henry Clarke Wright's burial lot: "The lot in which the body lies interred was designated and described to me after Henry's death, by himself, through Mrs. Rockwood, of Boston, a remarkable medium. I will give you all the particulars when I see you." Garrison criticizes the conduct of Wendell Phillips during Phillips's campaign for the governorship
