Book Details
Edition Notes
Holograph, signed.
Increase S. Smith asks Caroline Weston who she is going to vote for tomorrow, "i.e. who among the candidates or not among them, is worthy of the honest vote of an honest Abolitionist." Increase S. Smith believes "Mr. E[verett?] would delight to be honest if he could be so and popular at the same time." Increase S. Smith tells about his pleasure in the Misses Grimke's visit (to Hingham). "There was great opposition from many of the Parish; but the house was well filled and we had no mob at all." He reflects on the effect of abolitionists on parishes and ministers. He says: "You get into their pulpits, when they are absent, and rouse up their people to a little thought, ..." He praises Mr. [Convers] Francis as the first minister "to pray distinctly for the oppressed."
