2. during his stay in that city, he set out on the first of June, leaving his paper in the friendly charge of Messrs. Alonzo Lewis, Joshua Coffin. Lewis and Coffin. His part in the Convention consisted chiefly in opposition to colonization; Mr. Gurley, the Secretary of the Colonization Society, having made a speech on the second day, to which Mr. Garrison made Lib. 2.150. an immediate and effective rejoinder. Fragments of an address which the latter delivered at the close of the Conventi every friend of humanity, every disciple of Jesus Christ, to read it carefully, and understand the nature and design of the Colonization Society. You will have seen, by the last Liberator, the weak Lib. 2.193. and beggarly manner in which R. R. Gurley attempts to invalidate the work. I will not leave him till I have shown that every position he has assumed is utterly untenable. A few more extracts from Mr. Garrison's private correspondence will fitly close the present chapter.

Transmitted by Cresson to the home organ, the endorsement was seen to be fatal to the Society's standing at the South, so that to publish it honestly would have been suicidal. It was therefore suppressed, and a garbled version ultimately substituted, Gurley's explanation of this baseness may be found in Lib. 3.119, and should be consulted. which compares as follows with the original: Clarkson to E. Cresson, December 1, 1831. This Society seems to me to Lib. 3.178. have two objects in view— first, to assist in the emancipation of all the slaves now in the United States; and, secondly, by sending these to Africa, to do away the slave-trade, and promote civilization among the natives there.

and Sidney Ann Lewis—were, on Thomas Whitson's invitation, in attendance, and, both by their presence and their share in the deliberations, made the occasion still more epochal. A more original, devoted, philanthropic and religious body was never convened, or for a more unselfish purpose, or amid greater public contempt and odium. Its sittings were, while guarded, open to its avowed and bitter enemies. No person was refused Lib. 3.203. admittance to the Convention: on the contrary, Messrs. Gurley and Finley [General Agent of the Colonization Society], a large number of Southern medical students, several ladies, and, in fact, all who came as spectators, were politely and cordially furnished with seats. On the first day, the meeting was opened with prayer, and timber of the right sort for president was found in Beriah Green himself; Lewis Tappan and Whittier being chosen secretaries. The choice fell upon Beriah Green. A better man could not have been selected. Though of plain

having slandered his country Lib. 4.79. abroad. Still another church was found in which to protract the meeting, which in all occupied four days. The Colonizationists, who had held a counter meeting in palliation of slavery, kept aloof till a pretext for interfering was furnished by the unfavorable testimony of a returned colonist as to the condition of Liberia. The last two days, at the Chapel, were marked by interruptions, and at the close on Saturday afternoon the hall was seized by Gurley, the Rev. G. W. Bethune, a Methodist bishop from Virginia and others, for a colonizationist demonstration. Some of the ruffians bawled Lib. 4.79. out for Garrison, but he was out of their murderous reach. This was far from satisfying the Courier and Lib. 4.85. Enquirer, which warned the abolitionists never to meet again in New York. Disregarding this prohibition, the abolitionists of that city reassembled on the 4th of July at the Chapel, Lib. 4.110. with David Paul Brown, of P

Henry Ibbotson, a merchant of Sheffield, England. Mr. Garrison had stayed with him in March, in Mr. Thompson's company. See R. R. Gurley's letter to him in the African Repository, April, 1833 (9: 51). I have not ventured into the city, nor does one of us dare to go to church to-day, so great is the excitement here. You can form no conception of it. 'Tis like the times of the French Revolution, when no man dared trust his neighbors. Private assassins from New Orleans are lurking at the corners of the streets to stab Arthur Tappan; and very large sums are offered for any one who will convey Mr. Thompson into the slave Sta
