Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Anti-Slavery Movement Ladies and Gentlemen: Had I consulted my own health, or the advice of my physician, I should have been elsewhere, and otherwise employed this evening. I am not well, and have not been so for several weeks. I have usually come to this platform to lecture on slavery - that darkest and hugest of all wrongs - the vilest (in the language of John Wesley) that ever saw the sun. But it has pleased the Rochester Ladies´ Anti-Slavery Society to have presented here, during the winter, almost every phase of that terrible wrong; and I have, therefore, selected my topic in view of that tact. It will, probably, amount to the same thins; in the end. Some one has, happily, said, that it matters very little which path the traveller may take; he has but to go forward to go round the world. In like manner it may be said, that it matters little which path of inquiry a man may pursue, or which great moral or spiritual fact he may investigate; he has but to honestly persevere to find himself, at last, at the portals of the whole universe of truth, and speedily walking amidst its golden glories. The subject of my lecture this evening is, the nature, character, and history of the anti-slavery movement.
