Law of Right and Abolitionist Appeal at Oberlin Meeting
An abolitionist pamphlet and lecture notice from Sept 1839 emphasizes the law of right as God given, argues against human legislation overriding it, and previews anti slavery efforts led by W Cochran and J Blanchard. It calls for petitions to Congress and state legislatures to end slavery and the slave trade, with memorial forms and guidance for circulating said petitions.
