On September 10, 1846, he wrote to his wife: Unitarianism is as odious in this country as infidelity is in ours; but, thus far, those who have most zealously espoused my mission have been the Unitarians. Ms. To S. J. May Mr. Garrison wrote from Botunity. I saw her mother and sister at Newcastle [Lib. 16: 187]. As to the second of the American divines here mentioned, the Rev.

The demoralization which war immediately produces as a mere status, was lamentably shown by the compliance of the Whig governors Briggs Geo. N. Briggs, Wm. Slade. and Slade (of Massachusetts and Vermont respectively) with the President's request for a State call for volunteers. Lib. 16.87, 90, 91, 113. This action did not prevent the party from renominating Briggs, nor did Robert C.

From Halifax on the eleventh Ms. Nov. 15, 1846. day he pencilled a line to Elizabeth Pease, informing her of the smooth and safe passage, attended, nevertheless, with more than the ordinary discomforts for his overtaxed system.

This morning, dear Helen presented me with a new-comer into this breathing world,—a daughter,—and the finest babe ever yet born in Boston! On Dec. 19 he informed S. J. May (Ms.) that the little girl had been named Elizabeth Pease.

At Henry Vincent's home at Stoke Newington, Mr. Garrison spent a memorable day in company with Wright, Douglass, and James Haughton of Dublin—one of the staunchest and most influential Irish abolitionists (Lib. 16: 146). On the 10th of August, everything was in readiness for the formation of an Anti-Slavery League, to cooperate with the American Anti-Slavery Society.
