Title devised by cataloger
Jacob Merrill Manning notifies William Lloyd Garrison that he was visited that morning by a Mr. Hayward, a "gentleman connected with the Liberator", whom Manning gave his permission to list him among the speakers for the upcoming antislavery convention. Manning asserts that he has since taken "conjugal advice" concerning "woman's rights", and has decided to withdrawl his name from the roster of speakers. Manning informs Garrison that his wife is a native of Charleston, South Carolina, and that while both she and her immediate family sympathize with the Grimkes "in their abhorrence of slavery", and have abandoned their lives in the "hated system" of the South to settle in the North, her youngest brother has just returned to Charleston on the advice of his physician, and Manning fears that he would be disturbed in some fashion were his relation to Manning become widely known. Manning laments the state of the nation where he "cannot speak for liberty without perilling the life of my brother!"
