This was begun, with the aid of Elizabeth Pease, in the latter part of January, and was out by the third week in March (Mss. Feb. 2, 1841, E. Pease to W. L.

s Board, the American Society, or in his private correspondence. Quincy himself bore testimony to the sum of his friend's performance: Garrison is, as usual, putting off everything he can till the last moment, but contriving to do a good deal on the whole (Ms. Sept. 22, 1844, to R. D. Webb). In a more important particular he was never delinquent. As a reformer, he was never dispirited; he never lost his grip on leading principles. He came directly from his sick-room to his post in January, with a cheering survey of recent events during his absence. It had Lib. 13.10. consoled him while ill to reflect that his removal would be of no consequence to the cause. He affirmed anew the irrepressible conflict betwixt freedom and slavery, and advanced fresh arguments for disunion: The proposition, said he, may be ridiculed and denounced, Lib. 13.10. and some who call themselves abolitionists may be loudest in their condemnation of it; but all this will avail nothing.

Towards the close of the year, the Garrison family was blessed with a girl, Helen Frances Garrison, born Dec. 16, 1844, and named for her mother and paternal grandmother. You know they have a little daughter, wrote Ann Phillips to Elizabeth Pease. Garrison is tickled to death with it (Ms. Jan. (?), 1845).

nor did the Western mind shrink from anticipating that woman suffrage might ultimately be another. Some wild talk concerning the power of Congress to abolish slavery in the States, and the power of the President in disregard of the Supreme Court, was heard and noted by Mr. Wright. Two days and nights were consumed by the Convention Lib. 17.185. in adjusting differences. Joshua Leavitt led the Eastern wing, with the aid of Henry B. Stanton, whose politician's progress had been shown in January at a Liberty Party Jan. 20, 1847.

Ms. Jan. 10, 1848. begun to be sent out for signatures late in December, 1847. The author of it advised S. J. May that it had been drawn up with great care and deliberation, and sanctioned by a large committee of our best reformatory spirits; but Mr. May could not yield entire sympathy or allow his name to be appended. I am sorry, he responded on January Ms. to W. L. G. 15, 1848, you are going to have a Convention, because it will help rather than hinder the project of the Sabbatarians.

As for one of the heralded orators for this Anniversary, the black Douglass, who, at the Syracuse Convention in January, Ante. p. 281. had invoked immediate disunion, and alleged that Washington, Jefferson, and Patrick Henry were strangers to any just idea of Liberty—This was uttered, says a contemporary, and no hand was raised to fell the speaker to the earth! ere, and to be repelled on the same ground that foreign paupers and criminals were excluded. Thompson's welcome, clearly, was to come, now as before, from the abolitionists alone. The Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society had extended theirs in January, Jan. 25, 1850; Lib. 20.19. on an intimation of his intention to arrive somewhat earlier than he did.

ass of men who not infrequently said . . . that the Constitution is born of hell—that it is the work of the devil. Lib. 21.93. Webster had just directed the Syracusans to the Bible for their rule of conduct with reference to the Fugitive Slave Law. Greater familiarity with the book would have enabled him to recognize the Scriptural source of Mr. Garrison's famous portraiture of the Constitution. The Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society's application for Faneuil Hall having been refused in January, on the ground of Thompson's intended Lib. 21.24. participation in its proceedings, a like petition from the friends of Webster wishing to give him a reception there on April 17 had to be rejected—partly in consistency, Lib. 21.62. and partly in consequence of the excitement caused by the Fugitive Slave Law's having just been executed in its spirit and to the letter in the case of Sims.

The date of the Convention was fixed in October, and the place selected was Cleveland, Lib. 27.146. Ohio. In that State, the abolitionists had in January petitioned the Legislature to take steps to withdraw from Lib. 27.19. the Union; with the result at least of precipitating a very edifying debate, in which the Republican members Lib. 27.57. solemnly reaffirmed their affection and fidelity to the Union.
