Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Address Before the Salem Female Anti-Slavery Society: At Its Annual Meetings Women of the Anti-Slavery Society: You will pardon some personal references, such as I have not been accustomed to make at other times. Yon have done a noble work. Early you enlisted in the organized action for freedom; when your doctrines were disowned and perverted, your measures denounced and ridiculed, and your friends, if not yourselves, assailed even to the extent of violence. Some of yon, perhaps, have met that deepest of sorrows, not the sneer of the world, not the coldness or hostility of friends, but the interruption of religious communion. Within the church, from which you had drawn a faith dearer than the blood of your own ♥ from the pulpit, to which that faith had trained you to look with reverence, and out of which you were accustomed to wait for words of holiest cheer and mightiest energies; among religious associates, with whom your fresh and youthful zeal expected sympathy, and, if wise and careful counsel, yet not the less encouragement and benediction; you found - I will say merely, something else. How many were unable to surmount the resistance! - True to your earliest pledges, you have stood. God bless you, my sisters! On this, the last evening I may meet you here, I cannot decline the privilege of a farewell prayer: - God bless your persons and your deeds!
