Samuel Joseph May expresses his sorrow to learn of William Lloyd Garrison's illness, and assures him that were he not informed that Garrison was not receiving visitors on account of his condition, he would go to see him immediately. May informs Garrison of his own improving condition, and states that he will be visiting Thomas G. Wells in Brookline that afternoon. May promises to visit the Garrisons that weekend if they are both feeling well enough to receive company. May thanks Garrison for the delivery of "Arnold's medicine". May closes in marvelling at the "stupendous events" that he and Garrison have witnessed in their lifetime, citing specifically the abolition of slavery in the United States and the fall of the Second French Empire at the hands of Prussia
