Obliged to furnish editorials for the Liberator, Edmund Quincy comments: "The fatal firman has arrived!" He assures Maria Weston Chapman of his readiness to resign the honor in her favor. Edmund Quincy says: "No Parisian could be more eager than I to cry out place aux dames." Edmund Quincy was so vexed with himself for having forgotten an engagement to lecture before the Adelphic Union tonight that he could not write editorials. Articles written by Edmund Quincy that are not wanted in Latimer's journal can be used in the Liberator. Edmund Quincy notes the omission of part of an article that he wrote that was printed in the first number (of Latimer's journal); he wants Maria Weston Chapman to intimate to friends "that if my articles are inserted I expect them to be so without alteration or omission."
