Thomas Clarkson

Aug. 19, 1846

Writing to Clarkson, from London.  Garrison informs Clarkson that he, Thompson, and Douglass hope to visit in Ipswich.  “We trust the state of your health will be such as to permit you to see us, at least for a few moments … no name is more highly venerated by the truly good and philanthropic in America, than your own — and trusting that a gracious Providence will permit you to see the entire overthrow of American slavery, before you are called to your heavenly home — I remain, with profound esteem, Your humble coadjutor.    1
