Harriet Martineau, and Moses Brown
Nov 27, 1835
In a letter to Mary Benson, Garrison comments on two principal abolitionists. “Harriet Martineau, the distinguished authoress from England, has also shown true moral courage in attending the meeting of the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society, and avowing her approval of its principles.” …. Also, Garrison asks that Mary convey to Brown “the expression of my sincere affection and high respect… I hope that he might be permitted to live to see the year of jubilee in this country, for the whole slave population, which, I trust, is not far distant.” 1
