A touching Wendell Phillips temperance tale told today
The piece recalls a Boston public speech by Wendell Phillips in New York praising the power of a single word. A mother’s vow to her son on a Vermont hillside and a shipboard rescuer’s memory illustrate how strong words can shape lives, followed by miscellaneous notes and reflections on memory and abolition era events.
