Letter from Oliver Johnson, [New York], to Samuel May, May 19, 1887
Description:
Johnson says that if Eli Thayer had not had the support of the Society of Antiquity, Johnson would not have taken the trouble to write to him. Johnson replies to May's criticism of his use of slang and says that certain additional names should be included in his "roll of honor." He discusses arrangements for distribution of his review of Eli Thayer's book.
