William Lloyd Garrison writes: "Accept my grateful acknowledgments for your filial epistle on my becoming 'a sexagenarian,' in the completion of my sixtieth year on the 10th of this month." Garrison gives some parental advice. He believes that "the best way to be good is to try to do good to others." William L. Garrison is in good mental and physical health. He will leave soon for New York to attend a conference "respecting a proposed union of the American Freedmen's Aid Commission and another association."
