Holograph, signed.

William Lloyd Garrison received letters from several members of his family. Garrison writes: "Dr. Dow worked over my shoulder with a good deal of assiduity, but it is a stubborn case." Garrison will return home. He will call on Ticknor & Fields, but he doubts if he can do any writing until his arm gets well. He discusses his finances.

Includes an envelope with the delivery address: Francis J. Garrison, Roxbury, Mass. And this notation presumably about the person delivering the letter: (By kindness of F.E.A.).
