Rochester, May 1st, 1856
Passmore Williamson Esqr. Please tender my thanks to your friend, the gentleman who honors me by wishing an autograph letter from me. I comply with your request with very great pleasure and all the more since I have again glanced at the authentic history of the prosecution and persecution to which you have been subjected by the aggression and murderous spirit of American Slavery.
I am, My Dear Sir,
Very Truly yours,
Frederick Douglass
