Belknap-Street Church; the other, a State Disunion Convention to be held at Worcester, Mass., on January 15. Two only of the twelve founders of the anti-slavery organization were visible at the festival—Mr. Garrison, who (with Edmund Quincy's aid) presided, and Oliver Johnson among the speakers. Two, if not four, were numbered with the dead, as Joshua Coffin recorded in a Lib. 27.5. letter to the festival. Arnold Buffum regretfully offered Lib. 27.5. his old age and his infirmities and distance from the scene as an excuse for non-attendance.

my rights. Amasa Walker Lib. 27.14. saw clearly enough that slavery and freedom are absolute and irreconcilable antagonisms, that cannot by any human possibility co-exist, but his disunionism was confined to the non-extension of slavery. Joshua R. Giddings wrote that the South had notoriously for thirty years cherished the hope of forming a Confederacy: Editors and politicians now announce their determination to secede from the Union as soon as the Republicans shall obtain control of the g magazines of powder and military supplies, strengthening their defences, organizing and disciplining their militia, and forming associations and combinations to effect a separation from our free States. Lib. 27.14. In spite of all this, Mr. Giddings was for holding on to Lib. 27.14. the Union as it now is (i. e., with indefinite possible encroachments to strengthen the Slave Power so long as CH. XVII. 1857 its policy was to postpone secession), believing that the Union could be wielde

His cousin, Samuel E.

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 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.

7.66. The New York Court of Appeals, in the long-pending Lib. 27.199, 201; 22.186, 187. Lemmon case, decided against the right to bring slaves into that State. This revolt against the Slave Power was neither against the Constitution nor the Union. Nevertheless, the promoters of the Northern disunion movement determined to proceed with their proposed convention of the free States. The circular call was issued in July. It was Lib. 27.118. signed by T. W. Higginson, Wendell Phillips, Daniel Mann, A Boston dentist residing in Worcester Co., Mass., possessed of much shrewdness of character, and a racy and forcible writer. See the Liberator of this period passim. W. L. Garrison, and F. W. Bird—the editor of Liberator going far beyond the language of it, since Lib. 27.118. it proposed merely an inquiry into the practicability and expediency of disunion, and committed no one signing it to the doctrine.
