Excerpt from Slavery: A Sermon, Delivered in the First Congregational Church in New Orleans, April 15, 1838I begin with a definition of Slavery. Let us form, if possible, a clear and pree1se idea of the term. We all know that a talented and disingenuous man may conceal truth, and build up error, by the use of equi vocal, perplexed, and mysterious combinations of speech. Vague, general, indefinite terms and state ments have deluged the moral and theological world with cavilings, doubts, misapprehension and false hood. In the present discourse, without aiming to address the imagination, or feelings - to make What is commonly denominated a display of eloquence I shall simply endeavor to exhibit a statement of my views on a solemn and interesting subject, in the most unambiguous and explicit language possible.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
