I'VE have taken the above little paragraph from

not tolerate long At present. tre, the people OF
the United States are responsible Tor It's very

which We give 10 il and African slavery will be
n, more known in the world. England upheld il

slavery must be abolished, for the reason that 1t

The article alluded 10, which is quoted by all
the Loco Foco papers, 10 sustain thai position,

aboiishing slavery al the earliest practicable
