Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Annual Report of the American Anti-Slavery Society: With the Speeches Delivered at the Anniversary Meeting, Held in Chatham-Street Chapel, in the City of New-York, on the Sixth of May, 1834 The first public anniversary of this Society was held in Chatham-street chapel, on Tuesday the 6th of May, 1834. The house was filled by a very select audience, a large proportion being clergymen, and other visitors from abroad. At 10 o´clock, A. M., Mr. Arthur Tappan, the President, took the chair. Prayer was offered by the Rev. Cyrus P. Grosvenor, of Salem, Mass. Rev. S. H. Cox, of New-York, read the 58th chapter of Isaiah. An appropriate hymn was then sung by a choir composed partly of colored singers. Extracts from the Annual Report were then read by Elizur Wright, Jr., Secretary for Domestic Correspondence. Rev. S. L. Pomeroy, of Bangor, Me. moved that the report be accepted, and published under the direction of the committee. He said he had great pleasure in doing it, because he believed the principles laid down in the report are the principles of eternal truth and justice. They stand on the chapter we have just heard. If any one asks us for the principles of the Anti-Slavery Society, we point to that chapter and say, There are our principles. Would they know the means on which we rely, under God, for the accomplishment of our intentions, we reply, We follow the example of Him, who when he would reduce chaotic elements into order and beauty, said, "Let there be light." So say we, let there be light on the subject of slavery; investigate and publish abroad the truth. These are our means.
