pronounced among the elect, And zealous been in word and deed— Most orthodox of proselytes, Strict in observing seasons, days, Church order, ceremonies, rites, Constant at church, to pray and praise— Munificent in all good works, That with the gospel may be blest All heathen tribes, Jews, Greeks and Turks— Yet still a stranger be to rest. For what is rest? 'Tis not to be Half saint, half sinner, day by day; Half saved, half lost; half bound, half free; Half in the fold, and half astray; One instant, boasting of free grace, The next, God's pardoning mercy doubting! Now sinning, now confessing ‘True Rest,’ under the title of ‘Christian Rest,’ was retained in the collection of Sonnets and other Poems by William Lloyd Garrison, published in Boston by Oliver Johnson, in 1843—a persistence worth remembering in the present discussion. Some verbal alterations were there made, and ‘confessing,’ in the line above, became ‘denouncing,’ sin. sin; Filled with alternate joy an

But it only convinces me that all is not as it should be at headquarters, and that our friends in New York would be glad, on the whole, to see me cashiered, or voluntarily leave the ranks. Next week I mean publicly to rebuke the Emancipator. You will perceive by the Liberator, that our State Society is to hold a quarterly meeting at Worcester on the 27th inst. I sincerely hope you will be able to attend it; for, doubtless, Woodbury, Fitch, Towne, and their party, will endeavor to rally all their forces, and try to force through the meeting some condemnatory resolutions. I think I shall not attend, but let things take their course, uninfluenced by my presence. Lewis Tappan to W. L. Garrison. New York, Sept. 21, 1837.

ety is connected at all with the Liberator, as it gives the enemy some advantage in saying that the Society is responsible for all that I write and publish. We are to have a Board meeting on Monday, expressly on this point; and what August 28. will be the result, I can hardly predict. Probably friend Knapp and myself will have to resume the pecuniary responsibilities of the paper, but these will probably be met by some of our brethren. If not, the paper cannot be sustained after the first of January next. I feel somewhat at a loss to know what to do—whether to go into all the principles of holy reform, and make the abolition cause subordinate, or whether still to persevere in the one beaten track as hitherto. Circumstances hereafter must determine this matter. At the same date Sarah Grimke, from the hospitable home of Samuel Philbrick, Samuel Philbrick was born at Seabrook, N. H., in 1789.

One was the quarterly meeting of the same Society at Lynn, March 28, memorable for the maiden speech, in the anti-slavery cause, of Wendell Phillips, Son of John Phillips, the first mayor of Boston; a graduate of Harvard College in the class of 1831. He had studied law, as has been already noticed (ante, 1.453), and been admitted to the Suffolk bar.
