The best-considered and most effective speech of Mr. Garrison's during the year was that delivered at the New Lib. 23:[87], 93. England Convention in Boston on May 26. It expounded the constitution and philosophy of the anti-slavery movement, proved its catholicity, and vindicated the criticism meted out on its platform to all who took their stand on it. In form, scope, and strictness of reasoning it was a classical production. But we must pass it by, for the Bible Convention is only a week off. In the Liberator of April 22, 1853, appeared a call to Lib. 23.63. the friends of free discussion, without distinction of sex, color, sect, or party, to mee

Probably no one who heard him could read John Brown between the lines. Sanborn's Life of John Brown, pp. 435, 440, 447, 457-460. Mr. Higginson spoke with knowledge when he asked— Is it [slavery] destined, as it began in blood, so to end? Seriously and solemnly I say, it seems as if it were. At the New England Convention in Boston on May 26, Theodore Parker (equally with Mr. Higginson a Ibid., pp. 440, 447, 458-460, 463, 511, 512; Weiss's Life of Parker, 2.161. confidant of John Brown, and fresh from meeting him with his secret committee of backers at the Revere House) reiterated his belief that the time had passed when the great American question of the nineteenth century could have been settled without bloodshed.

They discussed peace and nonresistance together, Brown quoting the Old Testament against Garrison's citations from the New, and Parker from time to time injecting a bit of Lexington into the controversy, which attracted a small group of interested listeners. In May, 1859, Brown attended the New May 25, 26. England Anti-Slavery Convention in Boston, where he was heard to say, at its conclusion— These men are all talk; what is needed is action—action!
