Letter from Henry Orne Stone, Cambridge, [Massachusetts], to William Lloyd Garrison, 1853 April 5
Description:
Henry Orne Stone writes to William Lloyd Garrison requesting a conversation with Garrison "on the subject of slavery, and of developing, more fully and completely, my own views of the best modes of operation upon the mind and heart of the nation, in regard to this gigantic evil". Stone says that any time suitable for Garrison "will be agreeable" to him, and even if Garrison cannot make time to meet him, "no circumstances will diminish the respect and admiration" he holds for him.
