Jones, Thomas H

Description

Holograph, signed.Title devised by cataloger.Thomas H. Jones writes William Lloyd Garrison informing him that he is still in "this land of oppression", and that he has refrained from correspondance so as to not advertise his continued presence in the United States. Jones states that he intends to relocate to New Brunswick, but has postponed this until the Spring, when he intends to visit Garrison in Boston while en route to Canada. Jones states that he read the accounts of the annual meeting in Boston, and expresses his wish to have been in attendance. Jones requests that should Garrison publish his letter that he omit any reference to his present whereabouts.
