Joseph Carpenter writes Alfred H. Love thanking him for the letter, paper, and pamphlet sent to him, and states that he is always delighted to contemplate and discuss the "subject of Peace". Carpenter asserts that history reveals enough examples of the impossibility of eradicating "evil from the mind of Man" through use of violence, while "the power and omnipotence of Kindness, Gentleness, and Love" and adherence to the "Heavenly Principles of Nonresistance" may do so. Carpenter rebukes the hypocrisy of Christian sects who adhere to the rallying cry of "Peacably if we can, Forcibly if we Must", and in particular rebukes George Fox.
