William Lloyd Garrison thanks Thomas Bayley Potter for membership to the Cobden Club. Garrison discusses women's suffrage believing it is unjust, irrational, and "injurous to the public welfare to exclude the women of the land from direct representation, on account of their sex or condition." Garrison also believes that tarriffs should be abolished in favor of free trade.
