interview had not been more placid, but feeling no unkindness, but rather much pity, toward him. I fell down on my knees, and besought the Lord to forgive him for all his accusations against me, to open his eyes if he were in error, and to grant that no ill — will should be left to rankle in our hearts. I also earnestly besought forgiveness for myself, if I had said or done aught amiss. My mind was very tranquil. The meeting was finally held in the lower hall of the Lib. 4.123. Masonic Temple, in spite of direct incitement to violence by the press and by means of placards. In his debate with George Thompson in Glasgow, in June, 1836, Mr. Breckinridge accused Mr. Garrison of having concocted and printed a mobbing placard (Lib. 6.135). Mr. Garrison was present, and, during the slight interruptions which ensued, besought the chairman, Horace Mann, to do Lib. 4.127. his duty by the disturbers; though for his own part he regarded the Rev.

After this, through July and August, we read of proslavery riots or attempts in New Jersey, Pennsylvania(a Lib. 4.115, 133, 134, 136, 139, 147, 151, 156; Niles' Register, 46.413, 435. terrific three days raid on the colored quarter in Philadelphia, among smaller disturbances), Ohio, Connecticut (the coup de grace to Miss Crandall's school), yes, in Michigan; and even the sacking of the Ursuline Niles' Register, 46.413, 436; 47.15, 92.

He is often styled Rev. in the reports of his meetings in America (Lib. 5.1; 6.8; and 2d Annual Report of the American A. S. Society, p. 47). Nevertheless, he did not entirely escape that species of warm reception with which the Enquirer menaced him in case he should cross the Potomac. His windows were broken in Augusta, Maine, where a State Anti-Slavery London Abolitionist, 1.152; Lib. 4.174.

He cherished their spirit, dressed very much in their style, and generally [while in Providence] attended their religious meetings. Two of his daughters became Friends through convincement. Religion, philanthropy and hospitality moulded the family life at Friendship's Valley, as Prudence Crandall had gratefully denominated the Benson place, which lay on both sides of the Norwich and Worcester road, in an intervale at the foot of the long hill separating Brooklyn from Pomfret. Nowhere could Mr. Garrison have found an atmosphere more congenial to his moral sense, or more inimical to the solitary and unsettled life he had hitherto led. Almost in the ride to Canterbury he had Ante, p. 390. offered himself to Miss Helen, his companion, but lacked the courage. In January, 1834, he began a correspondence which speedily culminated in a proposal of marriage on his part

Premierement ta parure, car tu n'en avais point, et tu sais bien que jamais tu n'es si dangereuse (Rousseau, Nouvelle Helise ). Deep and genuine affection, modesty and self-respect determined her behavior on this and on every other occasion. The short hours spent together in rambles up the romantic Gray Mare hill which overhangs the little valley, or in the privacy of evening, or in the common intercourse of the amiable household, confirmed them in the wisdom and sacredness of their new relation. Other interviews, on Mr. Garrison's return to Boston (in May) and again in July, pleasantly interrupted and stimulated their ardent correspondence. At last the wedding was fixed for Thursday, September 4, when the ceremony was feelingly performed by Mr. May. All the appointments were plain and unost

at present expect much support from them. And surely, by a very trifling combination of effort and means, the colored population might easily give vigor and stability to the paper. In Philadelphia, they number 25,000; in New York, 20,000; in Baltimore, 10,000; and they are numerous in other places. True, they are poor and trodden down; but how can they arise without having a press to lift up its voice in their behalf? They are poor—but taking the paper will not make them any poorer—it willon, and have vindicated him so far as I could. Mr. G.'s error, they say, is in applying severe epithets to individuals rather than to bodies of men and principles. Short memories, that had forgotten the cause of Mr. Garrison's imprisonment in Baltimore, and the severe epithets applied to Francis Todd, and the covering of thick infamy which the junior editor of the Genius held ready for any Northerner guilty of complicity with slaveholding—and all that had come of it!
