notes
"Holograph, signed. Mary Carpenter remembers the inspiring visit of Dr. [Joseph] Tuckerman and thinks William Lloyd Garrison's visit had a similar effect. Carpenter said: \"Though many feel as we do with regard to Mr. Garrison, yet some will have been repelled from the subject by his visit, & a very large number, which hating slavery, will have been repelled from the Abolitionists by his language on many occasions, & by his entering on subjects which they think quite foreign to slavery, & on which they consider that he holds very injurious views.\" Carpenter discourses on the moral force of Christianity; extols Dr. Channing for showing its bearing on political questions. George Thompson and Elihu Burritt, while orthodox, \"showed that there is a common Christianity.\" Enclosed is a small piece of paper in which Mary Carpenter has copied an extract from a letter concerning William Lloyd Garrison and the prospect of his being considered the greatest of his country, next to Washington."
