Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Report and Proceedings of the First Annual Meeting of the Providence Anti-Slavery Society: With a Brief Exposition of the Principles and Purposes of the Abolitionists The Providence Anti-Slavery Society The Providence Anti-Slavery Society was organized on the 7th of June last. It was then determined that the annual meetings should be held on the second Friday of November. That time has arrived; and although only five months have elapsed since our formation, many events have transpired to encourage us greatly in the work we then began. We associated that we might co-operate together, and with others, in the use of all Christian means for the Abolition of Slavery in our land. The glad tidings have since reached us, that, by the persevering use of such means, the philanthropists of Great Britain have at length achieved the overthrow of the same abomination, so long upheld by that government. And we rejoice this day in being able to report that hundreds in our country have espoused the same righteous cause, since the date of our Association. Within the past five months, an Anti-Slavery Society has been formed in Andover, Mass.; another by the Young Men in Boston; a third in Portland, Maine; a fourth in New Haven; a fifth in Plainfield, Conn.; a sixth at Hudson, in the Western Reserve, Ohio; a seventh in Paint Valley, Ohio; an eighth in New York City, and a ninth in Pittsburgh, Penn.
