mon delivered by Rev. A. j. Cameron,
March 18th:

chains strong enough to bind our fellow
man to the thraldom of slavery to the
extent that he could not send the heart
rending and heaven melting appeals to the
throne of Everlasting Grace; and God
hearkened and heard and said to our
modern Moses: GAS in the days of old, I
have heard the cry of my people, and L
will send thee down." l congratulate you,

honor of striking the blow which rent
asunder the CALLING chain and set the cap
tives free I would a thousand fold rather
have the honor of standing on the blood
stained field of battle and strike one blow
at the enemy Of human rights than to be
President of the United States, or have
England's crown placed upon my brow,
