William Lloyd Garrison tells Oliver Johnson to use his own judgement regarding articles sent to the Independent. Garrison read Oliver Johnson's account of a trip to New Hampshire with great interest. Garrison has not yet relinquished the idea of writing a history of the anti-slavery cause. He doubts if Edmund Quincy would undertake the task, but Garrison would be glad to join Oliver Johnson and others in asking him. Garrison approves of the Independent's refusal to take notice of "the clerical orthodox bull issued against it in Chicago."
