George William Benson writes to William Lloyd Garrison requesting that he comes to Providence to attend a meeting of the Providence Anti-Slavery Society on the 4th of July. Benson says that Garrison's "appearance would benefit the cause by assisting to remove the prejudice existing in the minds of many against yourself" and he asks him to extend the invitation to "Mr. May and Capt. [Charles] Stuart" as well. He then gives him the name of new subscriber to the Liberator and reminds Garrison to send him a number of different pamphlets when they are published.
