Description: Oliver Johnson writes to William Lloyd Garrison relaying the position taken by Maria Weston Chapman concerning the publication of both the Standard and the Liberator during the War, namely, that the resources of the Society will be so strained that publication of both papers would be unfeasible, and that they ought to be merged. Johnson notes that it has been Garrison's steadfast preference to maintain the Liberator as the "exponent of your views on all subjects", but inquires if the present situation, coupled with the state of Garrison's health, might convince him to consent to such a design, if only temporarily.
