500 $aWilliam Lloyd Garrison writes to Henry Egbert Benson: "My soul yearns to see you fully convalescent, and engaged once more in the great duties of active life. In the mean time, remembering our mortality, and that afflictions are sent for our instruction, let us endeavor to cherish a child-like submission to the will of heaven, and to be resigned as well in sickness as in health." Garrison includes a hymn by Dr. Watts. Garrison will probably go with Samuel Joseph May to Boston next week and they will visit Providence. Garrison's review of Dr. Beecher's speech caused a flutter, especially the remarks on the sanctity of the Sabbath. Attempts are being made to renew the colonization scheme.
