Excerpt from Defence of Massachusetts: Speeches of Hon. Charles Sumner, on the Boston Memorial for the Repeal of the Fugitive Slave Bill, and in Reply to Messrs. Jones of Tennessee, Butler of South Carolina, and Mason of Virginia; In Senate of United States, June 26 and 28, 1854 And-thrice be'tontod all his foes; Ami thrice he slew the Slain. Of what the Senator has said on the relations of Senators, North and South, of a particular party, it is not my province-to speak. And yet I cannot turn. From it without expressing, at least, a single aspiration, that men from the North, Whether Whigs or Democrats, will neither be cajoled or driven by any temptation, or lash, from the sup port of those principles of freedom which are in separable from the true honor and welfare of the country. At last, I trust, there will'be a back bone in the North. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
