Book Description
Excerpt from Letters Addressed to the Friends of Freedom and the Union If submitted to a vote, under circumstances to admit an expres sion Of real sentiment, there is no doubt a large majority of the citizens in the states Of Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, and probably others, would decide for freedom, and the abolition Of slavery in those states. Although the slaveholders are small in numbers, their power is so great, that rarely a man, in a slave state, except one Of themselves, can be found bold enough to utter a word in favor Of freedom; and there is no leading interest to form the basis of combined action, unless it be the love of free dom, and this is not strong enough in the Slave states to secure unity of action, and hence all but slaveholders submit to be a degraded caste. But we have demonstration Of the power Of slaveholders in their political action beyond the limits Of their own states, and it is this we desire mainly to examine.
