William Lloyd Garrison admires George William Benson's prompt defence of Miss Prudence Crandall. The result of the meeting in Canterbury, Conn., is anxiously awaited. Samuel Joseph May deserves credit for the protest. William Lloyd Garrison wants to leave for England on April 1.

This letter was presumably written on the same sheet as the one to Henry Egbert Benson, see letter dated March 8, 1833, Call No. Ms.A.1.1 v.1, p.26.
