Excerpt from A Sermon on Moses' Fugitive Slave Bill: Preached at Ashland, Mass., November 3, 1850But, amid the general excitement, we witness two extremes in the expression of feeling. One class of persons would rise and show a forcible resistance to the law that sends back the slave, so fortunate as to escape from his master, to the clime of his sorrows. They would employ the bristling steel against the heartless slave-hunter, abroad upon an errand too base to be described. The other class would bow to the supremacy of law, right or wrong. They would aid the hunter of human kind in securing his prey. They would send back the man for whom the Saviour died as truly as for themselves, to the land where the story of a Saviour's love may not be told him.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
