stated that they did not take up TO defend and
explained the real motives Of their action The fact that
they oppose emancipation, ia their midst, is the only
foundation for the contrary opinion. But the u
the North equally opposed 70 II, II the four millions
Of slaves 10 be transported TO their midst The
prohibory laws against their coming, existing IN all the
