Description

Holograph, signed.Title devised by cataloger.Letterhead includes an image of a feminine profile, facing leftwards, basked in sunlight and surrounded by laurel wreaths, with the phrase "Liberty and Equality" at the bottom of the image.Oliver Johnson writes William Lloyd Garrison concerning an essay which he had previously forwarded to Garrison's attention on "the rights of woman" written by a "Mrs. Dr. Wilson" of Cadiz, Ohio. Johnson states that the National Antislavery Standard had rejected the essay as "extraneous", and Dr. Wilson presently requests that the essay now be "published or returned".

Benson's health has improved.
