Except for the issue of slavery, William Lloyd Garrison much prefers America to Great Britain. He regards his recent mission abroad as very important. The refusal of William L. Garrison, Nathaniel P. Rogers, Charles L. Remond, and William Adams to become members of the convention helped to promote the consideration of women's rights. Garrison lectured and distributed tracts on temperance and nonresistance. Garrison praises Nathaniel P. Rogers and hopes he will edit the National Anti-Slavery Standard. George Thompson was ashamed of the speech he made at the convention for its incoherence. Garrison was not troubled by the hostility shown to him by Joshua Leavitt, Amos Augustus Phelps, and William Goodell.
