AMERICA: THE ORIGIN OF HER PRESENT CONFLICT; HER PROSPECT FOR THE SLAVE, AND HER CLAIM FOR ANTI-SLAVERY SYMPATHY; ILLUSTRATED BY INCIDENTS OF TRAVEL, DURING A TOUR IN THE SUMMER OF 1863, BY JAMES WILLIAM MASSIE, D.D., LL.D., LONDON, One of the Deputation appointed to convey to Ministers in America the Address adopted at the ΤΟ THOMAS BAYLEY POTTER, ESQ., SIR, BUILE HILL, MANCHESTER. My Mission to the United States of America was prompted and sustained by your liberal philanthropy; and, in this memorial of my service, I gratefully acknowledge your constancy in supporting the cause of the Union, and the emancipation of the enslaved and oppressed. To be able to identify your name and generous sympathy for the working-classes as of a follower in the footsteps of your much-honoured and venerated father, adds intensity to my gratification in adopting this mode of rendering at tribute of sincere personal esteem to yourself. I am, Sir, Your faithful and obliged, LONSDALE SQUARE, LONDON. January 23, 1864. JAMES WILLIAM MASSIE. |
