William Cooper Nell thanks William Lloyd Garrison for the "tickets for the entertainment" at the "Colored Womens Home", and states that his wife, sister, and his wife's cousin all greatly enjoyed the show. Nell states his hopes that Garrison's health has recovered, and discuses his recent move within Boston, asserting that he and Garrison are presently "nieghbours". Nell recounts his attempts to steer clear of "Colored War Six politics", expressing his distate for "the unacceptable undercurrents, wire pulling and ambitious rivalries, and clannish demonstrations so prevailent" in that space. Nell writes that one of the more prominent benefits of his new household is reduced distance to the nearest post office. Nell states that he intends to visit Charles Lenox Remond, whose health is faring poorly. Nell comments on Garrison's solicitation for his autobiography, stating that he had promised Frank Garrison some of his personal reminiscenses of his father, and offers his hopes that Garrison might be able to make use of these in his work. Nell regrets that so little of William Still's book treats the city of Boston during the "Fugitive Slave excitement", and states his interest in the "Womans Rights Question". Nell closes in detailing to Garrison his efforts to organization his years of accumulated correspondence.
