"The cases in California are very grave. Help is urgently needed."

Goldman writes to Henry Montgomery of the Detroit News asking him to "concoct a corking good story, to give Berkman's meetings publicity," and "induce some of the other newspaper boys to interview" him. She follows that "Berkman has been having wonderful success everywhere and with some publicity in Detroit he ought to have huge meetings." Goldman also mentions enclosed clippings (not included here) relating to a San Francisco trial. 

[With:] Two fundraising letters from the Sustaining Fund for Emma Goldman, one addressed to Henry Montgomery (dated 3 April 1935), and the other presumably his copy (undated). In a typescript letter to Montgomery, Mildred Mesirow, Treasurer of the Sustaining Fund for Emma Goldman, writes: "It is unfortunate that those who most admire Miss Goldman find that their subscription cannot be commensurate with that admiration, as you have suggested. Yet were conditions more favorable, the fund itself would have no reason for being." Includes a carbon copy typescript of Montgomery's letter which accompanied his contribution.

[Also with:] MONGOMERY. Carbon copy of a telegram sent by Henry Montgomery to Emma Goldman, 29 September 1939. Requesting her address in Winsor, Ontario, Canada.
