Mrs. T. H. Lyles, President John
Brown Monument Association.
Dear Madam:-After carefully con-
siderinR the matter of the John Brown
Monument-of which you spoke briefly
a few days since-I have to me decid.
ed rs follows:
For several reasons, which I will in.
dictate as briefly as possible, I must ask
that my name he Withdrawn from all
connection with the monument scheme,
it having in the first place been used
without my knowledge or consent.
though from motives which were COM
planetary and which I appreciate. I
must ask also to be released from my
hastily given promise to speak at the
Sunday afternoon concert.
But first beg you will believe that
toward yourself personally I entertain
only sentiments Of the highest esteem,
and that were it not question of con-
science, I would be most happy to lend
myself to assist any measnre in which
you were Interested. honor you, and
all who would honor the memory of that
grand old martyr to human liberty, and
one Of the dearest wishes of my life has
been to see monument erected to his
memory, as tangible evidence of the
reverence in which he is held by the
race in whose behalf he gave his life.
SO far am heartily with you-beyond
this point I regret to say I hold contrary
views.
In the first place L am convinced that
the continuance in this country of the
work begun In England by Miss Ida B.
Welle, is Of paramount importance and
the duty of the hour. I believe that all
the available money of the race should
be religiously devoted-for the time be-
ing-to this work, and the diversion of
funds from this purpose to any other,
however worthy in itself, would be worse
than mistake---it would be calamity
and crime against the race. The best
proof We can give the world that We are
worthy OF the sacriucs made for US by
John Brown is to seize every opportunity
to lift ourselves to the plane Of manhood
he would have had US occupy. believe
could be look back upon US, he would be
more Rladdened by the evidence of in.
telligent efforts at self.heIpfulness than
by all the honor We can pay him by
erecting monuments to bis memory. In
other words do not think this the
proper time to start such movement
though I would be glad to see credit.
able monument an accomplished fact.
Second, am convinced that though
we had the necessary funds in hand and
there was no question of the wisdom of
devoting them to this purpose, it is i'm
possible to erect creditable monument
within the time you propose. do not
mean creditable in regard to magnitude,
but IN regard 70 quality. A work Of at
and We should frown upon anything
