Both Parker Pillsbury and William Lloyd Garrison spoke at James Nowell's funeral. Garrison says about the funeral: "The weather was mild but rainy, attended with several claps of thunder while I was making some remarks. Parker Pillsbury preceded me, and spoke in a very feeling and pathetic manner as one long and intimately acquainted with the family." Mrs. Morrill from Concord, New Hampshire, says her son Thadd is an invalid. William L. Garrison has changed his mind about going to England; his doctor says that he can go. He will probably be accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Wendell Phillips Garrison and Francis Jackson Garrison. Mary Carpenter welcomes him in Bristol.
