500 $aJohn bishop Estlin's special mission is "to keep Mr. [James] Grant up to the mark & in good humor with correct A.S. people: which includes keeping him, as much as possible, at variance with the Scobelite party!" Scoble complained because Mr. Grant did not send him E. Mathews's letters for examination before admitting them to the Morning Advertiser. [Josiah?] Henson complained that the Morning Advertiser articles had "stopped his supplies." Mr. Grant sees "into what difficulties his schemes about the Dawn Institute" have brought Scoble. E. Mathews told Mr. Grant and John Bishop Estlin the story of his being lynched. Mrs. Follen is anxious to get an English petition in behalf of [Daniel] Drayton and [Edward] Sayres. John B. Estlin called on M. Schalcher, who was writing a history of "the crime of December." John B. Estlin extols E. Mathews, who is doing the cause, and even the American A.S. Society "more good than Mr. Wendell Phillips could at this moment." The real cause of hostility to the Garrison party does not arise from religious opinions, but from fear of disturbance in the American and English sects. Tomorrow, John B. Estlin is going to see the Crafts. He hopes they will continue at the school. "Miss Lushington said Lady B[yron] will contribute for the ensuing schooling." Mrs. Follen is in poor health. John B. Estlin feels "utterly incompetent to comprehend the pathological conditions of the 'American constitution.'"
