only means of destroying slavery.

personal friends. knew. knew by
sight and sound all the great men and
women of that day and 1 know that
John Brown was esteemed a hero
and a martyr. A vulgar assassin, a
trickster, liar, a vain glorious brag-
gar would never have been honored as
The brains Of New England honored
John Brown. We are reminded of
what Lincoln said of Brown before
the election IN 1860. Then 1t was
necessary to appease the people, and
then too Mr.. Lincoln had not yet
concluded that union between free
and slave states, was impossible. l
do not for moment hint at any in
sincerely on the part of the greatest
OF Americans, but it was believed
then by him and by his associates that
slavery must not be touched in the
slave states, yet Mr.. Lincoln lived
to see what Brown and the anti
slave leaders had seen long before;
that to preserve uuion, slavery must
be destroyed and he did just what
Brown had tried to do, Organeldzed
regiments of blacks to conquer their
masters. But Lincold In his Cooper
Institute speech has no very severe
condemnation for John Brown. John
Brown was by no means a perfect
man. Such perfection he never claimed
for himself nor have his greatest ad-
mirers claimed 1t for him. He en-
ployed means Of which we can not ap-
prove. But we must remember the
times, we must remember the as
assination OF Owen LoYejoy, the
brutality or the Border Rufflans, the
ruffianlsm Of the pro-slavery aristo.

ist, who believed in predestlnation, and
like other great religious fanatics be-

land, the Cameronians of Scotland,
the Puritians of New England and the
Anti slavery leaders we're of this class.
Such religious fanatics have settled
more than once the destiny Of the
civilized world. Grim, relentless,
seemir gly hard hearted, though tender
as children, deaf to argument or ap-
peal of mercy, doing justice though
the heayens fall, they have more than
once forced nations to work righteous
ness. Well would it be for the nation
If we had these religious fanatics
nowadays, if we had men of one idea,
if we had men resolved above all else,
that they would do their best to com.
pei the nations to work righteousness.
Such men have always been in every
nation the salvation Of the race.
Human laws and human constitutions
are at best imperfect and when used
for base and ignoble purposes must be
disobeyed. Deny it as you will there
is higher law than any constitution
written or unwritten. While would
have the constitution honored and re-
spected yet would cali to mind that
fallible men made that constitution,
which has required several amend
ments to make clear its meaning and
may require more. Now what did
the anti-slavery leaders think of
John Brown? What was the opinion
of his contemporaries who were best
able to judge Said Wendell Phillips,
sit is great mistake to call John
Brown an insurgent. But he violated
law. Yes. On yonder desk lie the
words of men who died violent deaths
for breaking the laws of Rome. Why
do you listen to them so reverentlyf
Huss and Wycliffe violated laws, why
honor them? George Washington,
had he been caught before 1888 would
have died on the gibbet for breaking
the laws of his sovereign. Yet /
have heard that man praised within
six months. Yes you say but these
men broke bad laws. Just so. 1t is
honorable then to break bad laws,
and such law breaking history loves
and God blesses. Who then says that
slave laws are not ten thousand times
worse than any those men resisted
whatsoever argument excuses them
makes John Brown a saint"
We will grant If you please that
John Brown was religious fanatic, q
man of one idea, there was nothing
small, nothing mean, no thought Of
self marred his devotion TO the cause
of freedom. John Brown In Kansas
was honored by all lovers Of freedom
and in his honor monument hai
been erected at his old home In Kan

friends knew with what he was bat
tling, and he knew that nothing short
of cruelty and violence would awaken
the people of the North.to the terrible
nature of slavery 1t has been said
that he secured money under false
pretenses, that on the plea of making
Kansas free state, he proposed to
inaugerate a warfare which would in
volve the country. Many who gave him
money knew what it was intended for
and entirely agreed with Brown.
Rifles were sent to Kansas, not to
shoot Buffalo with, but to shoot men.
Brown s purposes were the purposes
of men who declared that the constl-
tuition was league with hell, and
who refused to vote or hold office. We
have read many quotations from his.
torians about The Potawotamie mas
sacre and John Browns share therein,
and one would suppose that Brown
made midnight attack on harmless
and defenseless citizens; but it has
been forgotten, that these men were
part Of a band, who had taken a solemn
oath to eXterminate Jonn Brown, his
family and active Free State men In
that part of Kansas, Severe measures
were needed to strike terror into pro-
slavery party, measurers which would
indicate the determination of the Free
State men and would paralyZe their
ferOcity so that future bloodshed could
be spared.
John Brown at Harper's Ferry was
the same John Brown, who had fought
so long and so we'll for freedom In
Kansas, and more stern and deter
mined than ever with few, after
wards honOred by all who knew them,
invaded Virginia, and attempted to
prepare a camp where fugitive slaves
could gather, be drilled and made
ready to achieve their freedom,
as the Blacks had done in Hayti and
and San Domingo. He knew the hor-
rorS or negro lnsurrection but be-
lieved that the Shareholders had
earned all that would be inflicted on
them. That however brutal the slaves
might be TO their masters, those
masters were only receiving what
they deserved. And he believed, what
after events proved to be fact, that
he was the chosen agent of God tC
end the holding Of slaves in the United
States. From the hanging OF JOhr
Brown began that movement which
finally resulted in the Emancipation

Hampden, Pym, Vaughn, Milt
and others are reverenced by i
English speaking people as amo 4
the noblest men whom En- :
land eyer produced; yet these n en-
deliberately condemned Char es
Stuart to death; and put Oliver Corn
we'll IN his place. AS were the Iron
sides under Cormwell So were the
antI-slavery people in the North, so
was John Brown of fOssawatomie. You
may call them men of one idea, they
were; but that idea was a grand one.
They belieYed that the negro was a
human being, entitled to all the
rights and privileges accorded to any
other human being, and when Chief
Justice Taney in the famous Dred
Scott case decided, that the negro
was thing like horse or an OK, no
wonder that they proposed to over
throw a constitution so plainly in
opposition to the Declaration of In
dependence. When it was proposed to
make the Free States hunting ground
for slave drivers and blood hounds,
no wonder that the decednents of the
Cormwellians declared that constitu.
tuition TO be a league with hell. You
say the constitution contained no
word on slavery, but the constitution
made the decisions of the supreme
court the laws of the land, and when
that court declared, that in the
United States there was no free soil,
it was the act Of the constitution.
Massachusetts answered this declara-
tion of the court by enacting a per-
sonal Liberty Bill which gaye free
dom to every one who lived within
its borders, and empowered the state
authorities to use all the power Of the
state to defend the liberty of even a
sojourner in the old Bay State.
lean we'll remember when on June
2, 1854, Antony Burns, under the
escort of the United States Marines
and the Independent Corps of Cadets,
was marched down State Street to the
United States Revenue Cutter to be
conveyed back into slavery; how, boy
as was, was ashamed and indig-
nant. An indignation was felt all over
Massachusetts, to such an extent that
the legislature then in session de-
clared that no black man should ever
be taken back into slavery from heI
Free Soil.
II Hampden, Cromwell, Pym, ol
Milton were patriots then John Brown
was patriot; they may be called re-
ligious fanatics aud so may John

Brilliant Remarks by a Salem Clergy
man.
A lecture delivered by Rev. w. e.
Copeland, of Salem, in Unity Church
Sunday night, March 20, 1898, to a

A Beautiful violin solo was played
by Miss Nellie Brown, the accom-
plished granddaughter of Old John
Brown, and other appropriate music
was rendered.
Perhaps in no part Of the United
States could one so well understand
the position of the anti-slavery men
and women, whose agitation finally
secured freedom for the slaYe, as in
Boston. There met every year the
anti-slaVery society, there was pub
lished the Liberator whose motto
was "The Constitution a League
With He'll and a Covenant With
Death" there assembled every year a
galaxy of intellectual slaves such as
shone in no other part of the world.
Lowell, Whittier, Longfellow and
sometimes Holmes wrote the poems.

the songs of freedom at conventions
and all oyer New England. Emerson,
Ripley andSumner prepared the essays.

Manning and Beecher preached the
sermons. Garrison and Rogers edited
the papers, assisted by Greedy and
Bowles. Lucretia Mott, Mrs. Stanton,
Miss Antony, Julia Ward Howe, and
Abby Kelly Foster added their words.
Such meetings, as were held in IRE
mont Temple and Faniel Hall and in
the Mass, House of Representatives
and sometimes in New York, have
rarely been held. Such independence
of thought, such enth usiasm for an
idea, such brilliancy of reasoning and
eloquence of delivery has meyer been
known before or since. In this move
ment were engaged the brainest men
and women in the United States, who
certainly were we'll able to Judge OF
the true character Of John Brown
In the 40's began the agitation, as
suming ever greater proportions nm
til in 56 Fremont WIS nominated and
in 60 Lincoln elected. The extreme
anti-slavery men would not vote,
they honestly believed that to take
any part in government was to coun-
tenance a national sin. 1t was The

downfall of the Stuarts in England
and which settled in New England
