500 $aThe annual meeting of the state society was held in Boston last week, with four of the five public meetings crowded to excess. Every speaker praised William Lloyd Garrison and the Liberator. At the meeting held at the State House, five hundred people were unable to gain admittance due to the overcrowding. Ellis Gray Loring's panegyric of Garrison elicited tremendous applause, increased by isolated hisses. Garrison gives the names of clergymen of various sects who joined in one common panegyric. It was voted that the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society should be responsible for printing the Liberator, but not as its organ. Soon, they will probably enlarge the paper.
500 $aIn the postscript, William Lloyd Garrison says: "We are all in consternation here respecting a dreadful rumor about Ray Potter."
