Wendell Phillips on Greeley.

Wendell Phillips has written letter
telling something's he knows about Hon
est Horace" He says:
GAS for his honesty, for twenty years it
has been bye-word with us that it would
be safe to leave your open purse i'll the
same room with him but as for any other
honesty no one was ever witless enough to
connect the idea with his name. Mr..
Sumner trusts him as lifetime aboli-
tionist.'
"This is certainly news to you and me !;
you and 1 know we'll, when abolitionist
was term of reproach, how timidlly. he
held up his skirts about him, careful to
put a wide distance between himself and
us. You will find few working abolition
lists, who stood in the trenches from 1910
to 1860, willing to trust the negro race to
Horace Greeley. I can remember the day
when he and his fellow Republicans quo
ted our criticisms upon them as certifi-
Gates that they were no abolitionists. we
can give him just such certificate now
with a clear conscience. Judged by the
files of the Tribune itself, there never was
an hour when Horace Greeley could have
been trusted with the care of the black
mans rights.p
