Letter from Orson S. Murray, Orwell, [Vt.], to William Lloyd Garrison, 10th September, 1834
Description:
Orson S. Murray writes William Lloyd Garrison stating that the latter had not acknowledged a letter from him earlier, and invites Garrison to a meeting of the Vermont State Anti-Slavery Society to be held in Montpelier. Murray states that should Garrison find himself unavailable that George Thompson or Charles Stuart would serve as fine speakers in his stead. In a post-script, Murray advises Garrison that the date of the meeting has changed, and urges Garrison to attend.
