Theodore Tilton informs William Lloyd Garrison that Henry Ward Beecher will be departing on Saturday, and that in his absence Tilton is to take charge of "The Independent" as the "master of its columns & opinions". Tilton declares his wish that the paper be "as useful as possible in the great cause", and states that, with a circulation of "60,000", its influence is "immense". Tilton asks Garrison for assistance, and requests that he write whenever he may to suggest potential topics that the newspaper ought to tackle. Tilton informs Garrison that he will soon mail to him a "Ten Dollar bill" as payment for an editorial by Garrison for publication in the page of "The Independent". Tilton states that he will not forget Oliver Johnson's suggestion concerning Wendell Phillips, and promises to keep the matter secret
