Gonley thanks Brownson for his kind letter of the 19th, and while he thinks well of the objects of the proposed Congress, his occupations will prevent him from taking part in it. Good working men are needed on the committee of organization and none on fancy duty. He regrets that he cannot come in aid, but thinks he can do more good in his field of work. He hopes the undertaking will be successful in every respect, and that it will be given the best... ability. :: III-3-c A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
