Mary Carpenter tells of the pleasure derived from preparing "the box" [for Boston]. William Lloyd Garrison "has formed strong personal friendships" in Bristol; Carpenter feels it a great privilege to be reckoned among his friends. In this connection, Carpenter quotes Tasso in Italian. She asks why Maria W. Chapman does not come to England.
