Holograph, signed
Title devised by cataloger
Letter addressed from Anti-Slavery Office
Johnson writes Garrison to urge him to be "clear and emphatic" on two points in his resolutions and address for the upcoming anniversary meeting: one, that the proposal to dissolve the American Anti-Slavery Society is not a shirking of their duties, but a readjusting to the demands of those duties to better meet them; and two, that he introduce the "question of Negro Suffrage" at such a point to gain the upper hand over Phillips on the matter. Johnson remarks that the Herald has called for African-American suffrage as part of Johnson's Reconstruction of the South. Johnson closes by informing Garrison that African American abolitionists held a meeting at Shiloh Church in which they denounced the American Anti-Slavery Society's proposal to dissolve as being guilty of "bad faith", and complains that they have hardly ever supported the Society in its abolitionist efforts
