after what I have written. The panic greatly crippled the regular operations of the anti-slavery societies, and forced a reduction of expenditures in all their departments. Mr. Garrison's support was naturally rendered more precarious than ever, while some special burdens were laid upon him. In the just-quoted letter to Mr. May, he wrote: After a wasting sickness of nine months duration (more than six of which were passed under my roof), my aunt Charlotte saw the last of earth on the 2d inst. I rejoice that I was able to give her every attention, and to do all in my power to relieve and save her; but her illness has thrown upon me a heavy pecuniary load,—some hundreds of dollars additional. Charlotte E. Newell; Lib. 27.163. Mrs. Newell was the youngest and much loved sister of Fanny Lloyd. On her losing her employment in 1854, Mr. Garrison wrote to his widowed relative, offering her a Ms. Apr. 7, 1854. home for the remainder of her days. While I have a place to shelter m

Douglas's material identification with this section was destroyed by the sale at this time of his Mississippi plantation (Lib. 28: 11). But the disunion spirit was still more developed by the Dred Scott Lib. 27.43, 45, 46, 118. decision, delivered by the U. S. Supreme Court on March 6, through the mouth of Chief-Justice Taney. Scott had been the slave of an army surgeon, who took Lib. 26.207; 27.45; 28.49. him to a military station in Illinois for two years, and thence to Fort Snelling in Nebraska (now Minnesota), where he was married to the slave woman of another officer. The sojourn in Illinois (being voluntary on the master's part) would have freed him, as this State was embraced in the Northwest Ordinance. The Territory of Nebraska was in the tract covered by t

ncipation at less than half price, from sales of the public lands (Lib. 27: 58). According to the rule, that the more impracticable the scheme of abolition, the easier it was to secure the adhesion of the clergy at large, Mr. Burritt succeeded in putting forward the Rev. Eliphalet Nott, the Rev. Mark Hopkins, the Rev. George W. Bethune, the Rev. Leonard Bacon, the Rev. Abel Stevens, and other leading divines, together with (mirabile dictu!) Gerrit Smith, to call a convention at Cleveland on Aug. 25. See for the proceedings, which ended in the formation of a National Compensation Emancipation Society, with Elihu Burritt for its corresponding secretary, Lib. 27: 143, 148; and see for Mr. Garrison's comments on the movement and on the Convention Lib. 27: 58, 163. Burritt was thirty years behind Dr. Channing, who, interested by Lundy's personal advocacy of gradualism in Boston in 1828, wrote on May 14 of that year to Daniel Webster: It seems to me that, before moving in this matter, we

prohibiting slavery north of 36° 30′. Scott and his wife were sold to a common owner, and returned voluntarily—or at least without resistance—to Missouri, where the husband brought suit for their freedom. The State court denied the suit, in default of evidence that their owners meant to manumit them by taking them on to free soil. Appeal was then made to the Federal Supreme Court, a body of nine members, of whom five were Lib. 27.62. slaveholders. The article in the Westminster [for July, 1857, by Harriet Lib. 27.173, 177, 181. Martineau, on the Manifest Destiny of the American Union], wrote Mrs. M. W.

While I have a place to shelter my own head, he said, or a crust of bread to eat, you shall share it with me. On the very eve of her dissolution, a curious discovery was made, after more than thirty years, of a few hundred dollars belonging to Mr. Garrison's mother in a Baltimore savings-bank. This sum, by the friendly intervention of John Needles, was paid over to the rightful heir, and served to discharge a part of the expense of Mrs. Newell's medical attendance and burial. It looks almost like a providential occurrence, Ms. Sept. 22, 1857. wrote Mr. Garrison to Mr. Needles. If my mother can take cognizance of what I
