This proposition he urged further in an article in the N. Y.

in regard to any record of ourselves. Time makes mockery of fame. Enough that the Right has triumphed, that Slavery is overthrown, and that God is glorified. During the spring and summer months of 1866, Mr. Garrison tried various treatments and remedies for his torturing pains, but time alone brought him relief or cure. Whist became a favorite diversion to him, and he spent many an evening playing the game with his children and with George Thompson, who had now become a neighbor in Roxbury and was almost daily interchanging calls with his old comrade. More than ever Mr. Garrison devoted himself to his wife, who, though sadly crippled, found much solace in reading and in correspondence with her absent children. The domestic event of the year was the birth June 14. at Rockledge of their first grandchild, whose advent gave Agnes Garrison. them unspeakable delight, and whom Mr. Garrison never wearied of carrying in his arms, lulling to sleep, or entertaining with song or pian

An immense mass of secessionists and Copperheads are holding a meeting at the Theatre, to sustain the recreant President; and I understand he is to address them!

The domestic event of the year was the birth June 14. at Rockledge of their first grandchild, whose advent gave Agnes Garrison. them unspeakable delight, and whom Mr. Garrison never wearied of carrying in his arms, lulling to sleep, or entertaining with song or piano. He refused to sign a petition, presented by George Shea of New York, for Jefferson Davis's release from Fortress Monroe, and had no disposition to join Gerrit Smith and Horace Greeley in that movement. Always opposed to capital punishment, he declared that if Davis, with his colossal guilt, escaped the gallows, hanging ought certainly to be forever abolished. The election, in the fall of 1866, of a former compositor on the Liberator as the first Chas. L. Mitchell. colored member of the Massachusetts Legislature afforded him great satisfaction.

Ante, 1.225. Happily, I have not had to wait for posterity for my vindication—a generous and complete vindication.
