gregational Church Monday evening.
He is an interesting speaker who
knew Sojourner personally.
Frederic Douglass, Sojourner Truth
Harriet Tubman are names that
stand out in connection with the
underground railroad" that took sc
many slaves away from slavery
Once Douglass was addressing an
audience in Faneuil Hall, Boston, on
the wrongs of the negro race-he was
despondent, when suddenly Sojournel
rose and with stentoriar tones called
out "Frederic, is God Dead?" The
effect was electrical.
Lincoln learned to love and respect
her and gave her a book having writ
ten in it himself "For Aunty Sojourn-
er Truth, A. Lincoln, Oct. 20, 1864"
When abou nine years old she and
HOck OF sheep were sold at an auc-
ton together for $104. Our young
people have few chances to learn
about some who exercised mighty in
Auences in bringing about the aboli-
ton of slavery and it is fortunate that
so soon after the attack made last
week in Boston on "Uncle TOMS
Cabin" we shall hear some of the
truths told here of humble, but
Sojourner Truth. Having
known sojourner and also Mr.. Rog-
ers, it is pleasure to commend to
the community both the speak
er and the theme. I expect to
thoroly enjoy the lecture.

T.. wonder how many in Worthing-

and heard her you have never forgot
