Dear Frank & all of the Garrison Family -
I am just in receipt of the fact that you have again most kindly remembered me by sending the two last volumes of the Life of your heroic & loving father- to me- at Rochester- for which I thank you most

heartily- and assure you that they will be most eagerly seised upon the moment I reach home- which will be the last of this month-
What a relief it must be to you all that the herculian work is completed- and how almost lost you'll feel now that it is off your minds-
I hope every library in the country will place the four beautiful volumes on their shelves- where every student can read & study them- I have thus placed a thousand sets of the History of W. S.
I hope your family

will be well represented at the 22d Washington Convention- which is to be held Feb. 18, 19. 20 & 21, 1890- And William- Will you not speak for us there this time?- Why the call therefore does not appear I cannot tell- I saw Mrs Stanton's first rough draft of it two months ago- and know that our Cor. Secy- Mrs. Foster Avery sent a copy of it to each of the leading officers of both Associations for their amendment- suggestions- additions & c. & c. and signatures but why no return of it- or something better or different has not been made- I do not understand- and because it is so late- too late-

I have to day mailed a brief notice of the dates & place of the Con- to both the Woman's Journal & Woman's Tribune- asking that it be published in their next issue- that the friends may be assured the Wash. Con. will be held in 1890- as it has been the twenty winters before that-
You will remember the agreement is that the call shall be signed by the Presidents of both Associations- & of course by the Con. Secretaries & Chair Ex. Corn's- also- But I hope to see you in Washington- I am to speak in South Dakota from Nov. 12 to 22-
With love to dear Ellen S. B. I am Yours Sincerely
Susan B. Anthony
