500 $aWilliam Lloyd Garrison has received an invitation from Mrs. Bowles to speak at the woman's rights convention in Lowell. He is worried about Samuel Joseph May's illness. An itching and burning of the skin is still troubling Garrison, and it has not been helped by Dr. Dow's treatment. Garrison says: "The mosquitoes are not yet all gone, and give some nightly annoyance, though I could not sleep any even if they were absent." He found a little mouse drowned in his wash basin. Garrison tells about the people who visited him and those he called upon. In particular, he mentions Mrs. Sophia Louisa Robbins Little and Phoebe Jackson, who "gave a religious exhortation to the prisoners" in the state prison. Garrison writes that "Sarah Tillinghast has just come in, with her two oldest boys, and will stay to dinner."
