Title devised by cataloger
Manuscript datede "Saturday May 10 1851
Malcolm Montgomrey inquires if William Lloyd Garrison considers the Bible to claim one's "obedience in all particulars", or if he takes a more individualistic approach to the meaning of scripture. Montgomrey asserts that if Garrison does in fact hold to the latter proposition that he cannot therefore condemn slaveholders for citing Biblical scripture as a justification for slavery, but declares that as Garrison does consistently condemn slaveholders, he must find his justification in a higher authority. Montgomrey offers Garrison his own religious views on the matter, and states that he is anxious for Garrison's opinions on the subject. Montgomrey asserts that fellowship with slaveholders, even in a "Temperance or Peace Society", is impossible, declaring that slaveholders "poison" all which they do
