I left the hall accordingly, and would have left the building The ladies thought he had done so ( Right and Wrong, 1836, [1] p. 31). if the staircase had not been crowded to excess. This being impracticable, I retired into the Anti-Slavery Office, (which is separated from the hall by a board partition), accompanied by my friend Mr. Charles C. Burleigh. Besides Mr. Burleigh and Mr. Garrison, the only gentlemen present were Mr. Henry G. Chapman and Dr. Amos Farnsworth, of Groton. The two latter retired from the hall with the expelled ladies. It was deemed prudent to lock the door, to prevent the mob from rushing in and destroying our publications. I immediately sat down, and wrote to a friend in Providence a description of the incidents of the day as they were transpiring (W. L. G., 20th Anniversary, p. 25. So Mr. Burleigh, in Lib. 5.171).

It was sustained—mainly by means of the Fair—ever after by the Society (unwillingly, however, as the best men, both financially and as abolitionists— Francis Jackson, for example—preferred the Liberator, and thought it sufficient), up to the time when the abolition of slavery made it needless.

The year 1840 was, in a fermenting period, distinguished for the number of conventions, of every species, looking to the amelioration of human society. One, which made much stir, was held at Groton, Mass., Lib. 10.127, 135. on August 12 (while Mr. Garrison was on the water), being called by the friends of Christian Union, who inquired: Is the outward organization of the Church a human or a divine institution? Amos Farnsworth was in the chair, and among other abolitionists who participated were A. B. Alcott, J. V. Himes, and Cyrus M. Burleigh. But also one remarked the Rev.
