Letter from Ann Carroll Fitzhugh Smith, Boston, to William Lloyd Garrison, Nov. 23, 1833

The Garrison Society expresses their gratitude for William Lloyd Garrison's efforts on behalf of the slave: "We feel under fresh obligations to you for your noble defence of our rights as American citizens, while in England; and your fearless exposition of the craftiness and deception of that nursling of prejudice--the American Colonization Society." To show their appreciation, the amount of $15 will be contributed to make William Lloyd Garrison a life member of the New England Anti-Slavery Society.
