Rev. Thomas H. Jones — Dear Mr. Garrison — “The Rev. Thomas H. Jones, a fugitive slave, has been laboring in this vicinity a little, of late. You know him, and do not, threfore, require any recommendation. He is soliciting aid for the redemption of his son. An enemy has published a notice in the Worcester Transcript, cautioning people not to aid Mr. Jones, and saying that he is the owner of a home, and that his son is free. This is a malicious falsehood. I am intimately acquainted with Mr. Jones, and testify to his integrity, to his need of aid, to his ability as a speaker, and to the fact that his son, for whose redemption he is toiling, is still in bonds, and hopelessly bound, unless anti-slavery friends respond to the appeal of a bereaved and sorrowing father. Will you do him the kindness to insert this correction in your paper? and oblige Yours, fraternally, DANIEL FOSTER, East Princeton, August 8, 1854
