May says that he has been quite "off the hooks" since early January. He thinks that there may be some truth to the claim that "much of the professed 'anti-slavery' of England was largely the result of an 'anti-American' feeling, which was glad [...] to find so conspicuous a blot and stain on our national character." He discusses the accounts of the "National Anti-Slavery Standard" and describes the Educational Commission for Freedmen. May mentions the disaster of Kagoshima and describes the reception to George Thompson on February 23 and a meeting held in Thompson's honor in Portland, Maine.
