William Lloyd Garrison says that all the Faneuil Hall speeches were bad, but [Peleg] Sprague's speech was diabolical. Letters written to Sprague and [Harrison Gray] Otis will be published in the Liberator. Garrison will review all the speeches. Garrison wishes that [George] Thompson would answer Sprague's attack. Garrison writes: "What a tremendous fire in Charlestown! I should think it would divert public conversation from us, for a time at least."
