Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Pastoral Letter, on the Religious Instruction of the Slaves: Of Members of the Protestant Episcopal Church, in the State of South-Carolina, Prepared at the Request of the Convention of the Churches of the Diocese, to Which Is Appended a Table of Sripture Lessons, Prepared on Conformity With the Resolution of the Co Brethren - The reluctance with which, in compliance with the desire of the Convention, as shown by the extracts given from the Journal of their proceedings, I should otherwise have proceeded to address you on the subject of "the religious instruction of our slave population," has been obviated in no considerable degree, by the sense with which I am myself deeply affected, of its claims too long generally disregarded, and the strong sympathy, in the feeling with which I am myself possessed respecting it, of many of the most wise and judicious, and at the same time, extensively interested, of the proprietors, embraced by the limits of our communion. There is, however, another, and more obvious reason, why any such reluctance, on my part, might be waived. Acting, on this occasion, as the mere organ of the Convention, and having nothing to do, but to report to you their views, I cannot but feel the responsibility of my agency to be very light, and that it belongs to others, rather than myself, to vindicate and make good with their brethren, generally, almost every thing which this communication will be found to convey. The subject, however, as they have presented it, will, I flatter myself, meet with no other, than at least a friendly reception.
