1837101441Pamphlet small 8vo removed dbd 11 pp. Removed some minor foxing normal aging and browning; otherwise very good. This pamphlet was prepared for the New York chapter of the Religious Society of Friends Quakers for their annual meeting to oppose slavery.

186014411New-York John A. Gray Printer 1860. First edition. Some foxing; a couple of small spots of light staining; a very good copy. 16mo original printed self-wrappers 29 pages. In the wake of John Brown's Harpers Ferry raid long-time abolitionist Gerrit Smith who had been one of the covert backers of the raid--the "Secret Six" was evidently so horrified once he realized the scope of the violence the raid unleashed that he had a breakdown and entered an asylum. Smith returned from his insensibility to find that--perhaps not surprisingly--some northern Democrats had published attacks on his links to the raid. Smith responded by suing for libel and this pamphlet reproduces correspondence between his son-in-law Charles D. Miller and the subjects of the suit with extracts from Smith's writings and abolitionist polemics. Sabin 82609; LCP Afro-Americana 9498. John A. Gray, Printer unknown books
