William Lloyd Garrison wrote to Martha P. Jacobs that he cannot promise to lecture in Worcester in April. If no other speaker is secured by March 15, Garrison will try to comply with their request. Garrison's post office address is either Boston or Roxbury. There was a "sad revelation of feeling" and a division of opinion at the recent annual meeting of the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society. Garrison sympathizes with Henry Clarke Wright in his lonliness. Garrison writes: "I am, as yet, uncertain what to do. But I must try to find some employment soon, as my candle is burning at both ends." Fanny Villard writes to William L. Garrison frequently. Garrison will lecture in Haverhill on Feb. 12.
