"Sir --I feel honored by the invitation to attend the Boston Convention, and to give my opinion upon the question--"How can American slavery be abolished?" I consider the application is made to me as conceiving me to represent the anti-slavery body in this country; and I believe that I speak their sentiments, as well as my own, in expressing the widest difference of opinion with you upon the merits of those who promoted the Harper's Ferry Expedition, and upon the fate of those who suffered for their conduct in it.
