Chas. E Crain Esqr.
Box 277. Milwaukee
My dear Sir:
I thank you for your letter but I see no chance the present season of being near enough to Milwaukee to make it possible for me to give my lecture upon John Brown. If I had a few appointments within speaking distance I might easily do so but I have not and must therefore give up Milwaukee.
Truly yours
Fredk Douglass
