I can prove the safety of immediate Emancipation by history.
Perhaps you have feared the consequences of immediate Emancipation, and been frightened by all those dreadful prophecies of rebellion, bloodshed and murder, which have been uttered.
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.
There is nothing to fear from immediate Emancipation, but every thing from the continuance of slavery.
