He was the author of several works, the most important of which were Views of American Constitutional law (1844), The democracy of Christianity (1851), Slavery and Anti-slavery (1852), and The American slave Code (1853). He was an able writer and close reasoner, though diffuse in style. In his religious views he was rigidly Clavinistic. (See Memorial of William Goodell, Chicago, 1879.) Arrived in Boston, Lundy went to Mr. Collier's boarding-house, where he became acquainted with Mr. Garrison, and found in him a ready and enthusiastic Life of Lundy, p. 25.convert, who was willing to give not merely words of sympathy and approval, but energetic and active support. Garrison had seen the Genius, and so known of Lundy, whom he had imagined a Hercules in shape and size; and his disappointment was great, at first, when he beheld a diminutive and slender person,—the last

For daring to give his opinions of the moral aspect of slavery! Where is the liberty of the press and of speech? where the spirit of our fathers? w

I remember very distinctly the first time I ever saw Garrison, wrote Mrs. Child in 1879. I little thought, then that the whole pattern of my life-web would be changed by that introduction. I was then all absorbed in poetry and painting, soaring aloft on Psyche-wings into the ethereal regions of mysticism. He got hold of the strings of my conscience and pulled me into reform. It is of no use to imagine what might have been if I had never met him. Old dreams vanished, old associates departed, and all things became new ( Letters of L. M. Child. p. 255). The losses of the ye
