The later journals record the continued growth of Willard’s thought as she deals with her mother’s death, the exhausting work of managing a world-wide organization (and the rise of factions within the WCTU that resisted Willard’s radical and wide-ranging Christian Socialist program), and the decline of her own health. Lists of meetings and appointments, interspersed with her typical lively commentary—even when she was 'tee-totally tired'—demonstrate her continuing dedication to 'Do everything' to make a better world.
