Pillsbury gives directions about certain correspondence. He condemns "The New York Independent" as a "very troublesome paper" and tells May that he wishes to expose the Turkish Mission plan. Pillsbury discusses Frederick Douglass' friends in England and says that George Thompson is to be the chief speaker at the upcoming anniversary of the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society. He comments caustically on the tactics of this society. Pillsbury informs May that the May issue of "The Anti-Slavery Reporter" deals mostly with Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe's visit to the Boston Anti-Slavery Fair and other American affairs. He mentions the Grand Rally of the Maine Liquor Law supporters, for which James Haughton and Richard Allen are the principal leaders
