- William Lloyd Garrison says he should have written Mrs. Elizabeth Pease Nichol sooner. He reminisces about his visit to Mrs. Nichol's home in Edinburgh and regrets the absence of Jane and Eliza Wigham at the time. Garrison tells about Mrs. M. Woods Lawrence, who knew the Wighams. Mrs. M. Woods Lawrence's father was the late Rev. Woods Leonard, a professor at the Andover Theological Institution, and her brother, Leonard Woods, was a Southern sympathizer during the Civil War and formerly the president of Bowdoin College. Garrison mentions the death of Mrs. Ritchie, the widow of the Rev. Dr. Ritchie. He was glad that Mrs. Nichol received the stereoscopic views of the ruins left by the Boston fire of 1872. This winter has been the coldest that Garrison has ever known. George Thompson Garrison and William Lloyd Garrison Jr. lost their property in the fire. William Lloyd Garrison has been in poor health. He tells about Mr. and Mrs. Henry Villard. Henry Villard is troubled by "distracting noises in his head which have thus far defied all medical skill." Garrison thanks Mrs. Nichol for the copy of the "Life and Writings of Mazzini" and also the notorious volume, "Medical Women," by Miss Jex-Blake
