Title supplied by cataloger
Griffing says Parker Pillsbury "utterly repudiated the present system of marriage." He quotes from an article on women's rights that was written by Pillsbury. Griffing complains of Pillsbury's lack of modesty on one occasion and says that some of the "liberal" abolitionists were favoring a theory of "Individual Sovereignty" which closely resembles the Free Love doctrine. Griffing says it caused his wife to divorce him and that she then became Pillsbury's traveling companion. He claims that some of his anti-slavery friends had told him that Pillsbury was a free lover. He denies rumors that he has been intemperate
