His progress towards greater theological enlightenment was manifested in his treatment of Theodore Parker's heresies, at a time when the preacher's own denomination could not even tolerate a Unitarian Lib. 15.55. clergyman who would exchange pulpits with him. Mr. Garrison was not shocked by the denial of a superhuman nature or attributes to Jesus. The pother, he declared, was caused by Mr. Parkers disbelief in the miraculous; yet, surely, the obligations and duties of man to his fellow-man and to God are in no degree affected by the question whether miracles were wrought in Judea or not, with whatever interest that question may be invested. Lib. 15.55. Later in the year, the publication of a Boston edition of the theological works of Thomas Paine brought the volume to him for review. His reception of it was characteristic: Until it was put into our hands a few days since, i

ong Staffordshire historians, and their search reveals the fact of there being two (contemporary) Matthew Cradocks, both Members of Parliament. Our thanks are certainly due to them and to the present proprietor of Meaford (whose letters to Historian Hughes follow), who carefully copied the inscription in Caverswall church. Feb. 10th. Dear Mr. Hughes— Since I saw you the other night I have been hunting up the Cradocks. I find as I thought that they are related to us through the Parkers. . not the Jervis'. I find that on Nov. 28th, 1735, John Hawe of Walsall married Mary Cradock. They had a daughter Mary who married in 1764, Thomas Hawe Parker of Park Hall. This Thomas Parker left his Park Hall estate to his nephew, my grandfather the Honble E. S. Parker Jervis, and it now belongs to my brother. We also still own the old property of the Hawes Solihull near Warwick. I have found a curious old sampler worked by this Mary Cradock in 1722, and we have a beautiful portrait

e, or calculations of interest, had governed them, they never would have picked a quarrel with the South--never, most especially, on the subject of slavery. The mutual interests of the two sections tended to cement the friendship of New England and the South more indissolubly and closely than that of any two peoples under the sun. But they became possessed, by some odd chance, with the same Devil, or legion of Devils, that afflicted the Puritans; and among all their Beechers, Kallochs, and Parkers, there is not one apostle that can cast out the fiends. We cannot build conclusions in regard to the duration of this war upon considerations of interest. The foes we have to fight are madmen. The madness which we combat is that same madness which has for thirty years been abusing and vilifying the best customers of the people it possessed, which has spread discord and hatred throughout the land, which has diabolically cut the bands of Union, and pulled down the pillars of the faires
