185633708Philadelphia 1856. 24pp disbound three small binding holes in blank left margin. Two early signatures of Wm. Thompson Shafer on title page. Light spotting throughout. About Good. <br/><br/> This scarce pamphlet says the "great issue" is whether "Slavery shall be allowed to overspread a territory of greater extent than that of the whole United States" and "whether the policy of our government is to continue to be that of Slavery Extension or Slavery Restriction." All the power of the presidency is "being used to force the withering and blighting scourge of Slavery upon the National domain." Pursuing this tyrannical course our government "shall lend its aid in striking a deathblow to the freedom of speech the liberty of the press and the security for life personal liberty possession and peace." <br/>LCP 4300.

1855WRCAM55824New York: American Anti-Slavery Society 1855. 36pp. Gathered signatures stitched as issued. Minor edge wear spotting and soiling. Very good. The scarce second edition of this anti- slavery pamphlet printed in New York by the American Anti-Slavery Society from the same "stereotype plates.without alteration" as the first edition printed in Hartford earlier the same year. The text focuses on an appeal to the American Tract Society to take a more vocal and concerted stand against slavery. The authors of the text accuse the American Tract Society of "suppression" of anti- slavery sentiment by censorship of certain works it publishes that speak against the institution and an overall sin of "studied and persistent ommission" by not itself issuing "a direct condemnation of the most giant iniquity of our land." The text is signed in print at the conclusion by "The Members of the Fourth Congregational Church Hartford Conn." The work was issued as the sixteenth entry in the American Anti-Slavery Society's "Anti-Slavery Tracts." SABIN 30676. American Anti-Slavery Society unknown books
