Letter from Henry Vincent, London, [England], to William Lloyd Garrison, 1876 July 11th

In this letter to William Lloyd Garrison, Henry Vincent describes his return from the United States and his upcoming lecture plans, including a stop in New York in October, before he "bid[s] adieu to the great country for ever." He comments on the selection of [Rutherford B.] Hayes and [William] Wheeler as the Republican candidates for the 1876 presidential election and remarks that in the United Kingdom, the "lower strata of the working classes .. is indifferent to or ignorant of politics. .. It has no political part." He also mentions seeing Lucretia Mott and tells Garrison he hopes he "shall live to see you again."
