Description

Johnson, responding to Garrison's desire that their anniversary meeting should include both an African-American speaker as well as a female speaker, suggests that they engage Frances Harper Watkins. Johnson states his belief that those in the American Anti-Slavery Society in favor of the dissolution fo the society should "not take it for granted that we are to be voted down", and urges Garrison to actively participate in the debate in favor of dissolving the society.
