Holograph, signed
William Lloyd Garrison and Oliver Johnson spent the night in Philadelphia. Mary Grew is recovering from a long illness. They went to hear William Wells Brown. They saw a number of friends in Philadelphia, including Mattie Griffith, the author of the Autobiography of a Female Slave. Mattie Griffith has been ill, has no reliable financial resources, and has to support her sister with three children. In Longwood, Garrison is staying with friends and has received great hospitality. On Sunday morning began the first meeting of Progressive Friends. The day was fair and beautiful, with attendance in the meeting house no less than three thousand. They counted upwards of 650 vehicles. Garrison spoke outdoors. They had four meetings, free discussion was the order of the day, and the most excellent spirit pervaded the deliberations. Lucretia Mott gave admirable testimonies
