William Lloyd Garrison tells of the death of James Miller M'Kim: "At dawn this morning--4 o'clock--my beloved friend McKim passed on to the spirit land without a struggle--a happy translation for him, and a great relief to his family seeing that his case was incurable, and life only a burden." William L. Garrison will take an active part in conducting the funeral service. The plans for William L. Garrison's trip with Francis Jackson Garrison will have to be changed. He discusses train schedules.
