William Lloyd Garrison is very relieved that Agnes Garrison has recovered from her serious illness. William L. Garrison attended a lecture by Ralph Waldo Emerson; he tells about the other people in attendance. William L. Garrison "could get no very tangible idea as to the drift" of the lecture. He mentions some social commitments attended by his children and grandchildren. He is glad that Helen Villard is making good progress on the violin.
