Holograph, signed
Title devised by cataloger
Manuscript composed on the verso of a letter addressed to Sarah Grimke from H.O. Mifflin & Co. declining to publish her submitted manuscript on the grounds that the public is "worse than indifferent to the subject treated in it", and requesting that she inform Francis Jackson Garrison on the manner in which she would like the manuscript of her work returned to her. This manuscript is composed upon stationary bearing the typeset letterhead of "The Riverside Press"
Manuscript annotated on recto, with "(Sarah M. Grimke)" in pencil beneath Grimke's signature
Sarah Grimke writes Francis Jackson Garrison concerning the decision taken by Riverside Press to decline to publish her submitted manuscript. Grimke asserts that she is "scarcely disappointed" by the decision owing to her acute awareness of the truth in their assertion that their refusal of the manuscript was based on the indifference of the general public to the subject matter, which she describes as "the history of a quadroon who married a planter". Grimke requests that Garrison retrieve the manuscript and safeguard it for her until she may visit him
