Maria Weston Chapman is going to enlarge her house and build a lower room. The railroad and marriage law has caused a good deal of discussion. She gives news about William Lloyd Garrison, James Boyle, and others. She discusses Mrs. Lydia Maria Child's editorship of the National Anti-Slavery Standard, and the attack of John A. Collins by Samuel Philbrick for improper accounts. Chapman thinks that she could run the Standard herself. She mentions the George Latimer fugitive slave case.
