throughout the country as volunteer workers opened

taken Garrison to their

was too young to know
that Public Nuisances
never die or fade away.
Garrison remained
controversial figure,
prophet without honor
in his home town. at
some time or other, he
had trOd heavily ON
every toe in Joppa. Some
continued to ache bitter
ly after several genera
tiOns.
His roaring Anti-Slav-
cry Sentiments had out
ragged the Best People,
and made some Inform
erS for the South. To
wOrsen matters, he blast
ed NewburypOrt Rum,
and demanded Women
Suffrage, among other
things.

against Slavery are mostly

advocacy of Prohibition and

as plain as the stuff on his
face and forehead.
My first look reminded me
of lines by Edwin Markham:
Bowed by the weight of
centuries, he leans upon his
hoe and gazes on the ground,
the emptiness of ages in his
face, and on his back the
burden of the world
Garrison seemed more pa
thetic than the Man With
The Hoe. Nothing to lean on;
no staff; not even a WPA
shovel AS for his face, bet
ter the emptiness of ages"
than their tarnish and ex-
crement!
Properly impressed and
inspired, I set out to shame
the City for so shabbily
treating a Famous Son. I
took myself and my talents
seriously in those days. Jus
tice seemed only a matter
of several hefty editorials.
This situation seemed made
to order. The Great Abo-
