On pages 1-6, there is a letter by William Lloyd Garrison to Elizabeth Pease Nichol. Garrison says that his countrymen regard him as \"a seditious and pestilent fellow.\" Angelina E. Grimke sent to Garrison the gift of five guineas from Elizabeth Pease Nichol. There are 1,200 anti-slavery societies established in the non-slaveholding parts of the United States. Organized opposition to the abolitionist cause has vanished in New England. Political parties are now bowing to the abolitionists. No impression has been made in the slave states. Garrison discourses on national pride. Garrison praises the efforts of women on behalf of the slaves. A million names were sent to Congress on petitions opposing the annexation of Texas. Garrison notes the influence of the Grimkes. On page 6, there is a letter by Sarah Moore Grimke to Elizabeth Pease Nichol, April 9, 1838(?). Sarah M. Grimke acknowledges receiving the letter from Elizabeth Pease Nichol to Angelina E. Grimke. The only copy of Sarah and Angelina Grimkes' letter to the Queen was sent to Elizabeth Pease Nichol in November. The Grimkes expect to attend the Woman's Convention in Philadelphia. Sarah M. Grimke commends the work written by Richard M. Beverly about the present state of the church."
