William Lloyd Garrison praises Henry Clarke Wright's journal of travels, as it appeared in the Liberator. He sympathizes with Wright in his trials and admires his fidelity. Garrison reflects on people's readiness to serve in war. The annual meeting of the New England Non-Resistance Society was profitable, but the lecturers are "almost wholly engaged in the anti-slavery movement." A resolution regarding Wright's return was adopted. Garrison hopes that Henry C. Wright will come home in the the spring with James N. Buffum and Frederick Douglass.
