Angelina Emily Grimké: “Consequences, my friends, belong no more to you, than they did to these apostles.”

He is moving the British Churches to send out to the churches of America the most solemn appeals, reproving, rebuking, and exhorting them with all long suffering and patience to abandon the sin of slavery immediately.

They were occasioned not by Emancipation, but by the base attempt to fasten the chains of slavery on the limbs of liberated slaves.

I have attempted to vindicate the Abolitionists, to prove the entire safety of immediate Emancipation, and to plead the cause of the poor and oppressed.

Slavery may produce these horrible scenes if it is continued five years longer, but Emancipation never will.
