Description:
Bayard Taylor writes to William Lloyd Garrison informing him that "'Patterson & Co.' of Indianapolis are bankrupt and have suspended their business - whatever it was." Taylor explains that he was not notified of their bankruptcy this caused him to "lose many opportunities ... and I thought that they may have treated you in the same way." He laments that "the beautiful barn and out-buildings I intended to have erected with the money, thus tumble down before they are built."
