William Lloyd Garrison hopes that he may be excused from going to New York to a meeting of the American Freedmen's Aid Commission. He does not feel well enough to take the trip. He may lecture in Feltonville, Massachusetts, instead. Garrison says: "Dear Lucy's visit will long be most pleasurably remembered."

Also with the same Call No. Ms.A.1.1 v.7, p.3 is an unrelated manuscript consisting of "Mrs. Ruffin's / Original Report." It includes a list of the officers and a list of the board of managers and minutes from meetings held on Jan. 31 and Feb. 5. The report concludes with these goals: "Object, the more vigorous support of the work Mrs. Sharpe has been trying to do in Liberia among the native girls in her home school at Mt Coffee. Efforts are now being made by the board for starting circles auxilliary to the central circle in Boston, in all the principal cities in N.E."
