Book Details
Edition Notes
Holograph, signed.
Jane M. MacPhail has been completely absorbed by the abolition movement. She had little success in persuading her neighbors to contribute to the cause. Her husband and herself have withdrawn from their church. The unorthodox opinions of the abolitionists have been an obstacle. She thinks that the anti-slavery movement has been of great benefit to women. Jane M. MacPhail says: "In Britain the total abstinence reform will place its adherents in the position with regard to the Sectarian Churches, in which antislavery has placed you in respect to the American Church." She mentions the opposition of Dr. Wardlaw to the temperance movement. She tells of an occasion in which she opposed capital punishment. Jane M. MacPhail writes: "The Hue and Cry of infidelity raised in Scotland against New England Abolitionists, has reached us, ..." She wants a copy of Uncle Tom's Cabin. She mentions Charles Dicken's successful appeal to the feelings of the English people in regard to the "commercial educational system" in England.
