Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Considerations on the Use of the Productions of Slavery: Especially Addressed to the Religious Society of Friends, Within the Limits of Philadelphia Yearly Meeting
Under a solemn sense of the awful load of guilt which is impending over our beloved coun try, ana' afour share in the responsibility, may we seriously and impartially examine what is required at our hands. If our hearts are softened and expanded by the love of God, we shall be prepared to view these oppressed people as children of the same Almighty Father, equally with ourselves the objects of His divine regard, and of that salvation which comes by J usus Christ; and thus be enabled to enter into a lively feeling of the miseries and hardships they endure; to put our souls in their souls' stead, and in singleness ofheart to follow every clear opening of duty in their behalf, whatever sacrifice it may cost us, either of worldly trea sure or popularity. Yearly Meeting Mi nute, 1839.
