Letter from L.L. Jameson, Washington, [D.C.], to William Lloyd Garrison, Feb[ruary] 13th 1865
Description:
L.L. Jameson writes to William Lloyd Garrison in regards to her husband's military court-martial and subsequent presidential pardon.

Jameson expresses her regret at having left the company of Mrs. Garrison so suddenly.
