<mods:abstract>James Miller M'Kim writes to William Lloyd Garrison with an account of President Johnson's "speech to the colored man who walked upon him the other day", and opines that one of the "sadder blunders" of Lincoln's presidential career was "made in an interview with a delegation of colored men". M'Kim asserts that President Johnson's repetition of this blunder is "beyond understanding and "utterly without excuse", and that he will compose a "proper rebuke" to Johnson for publication in the next edition of the Liberator. M'Kim declares that it is his expectation and demand that President Johnson "shall express his wish" that African-Americans be possessed of the "equal citizenship" with Caucausian-Americans, and states his concurrence with the resolution passed by the American Freedmen's Aid Union asserting that the best aid possible that could be given to freedmen is "the right to present himself by the ballot".</mods:abstract>
