Volume: 64



23. The Appeal of the Religious Society of Friends in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Etc., to Their Fellow-Citizens of the United States on Behalf of the Coloured Races (Philadelphia: Friends’ Book-Store, 1859). (48 p.)


Anti-slavery tract based on Biblical texts. An appendix provides documents relating to the continuing slave trade between Africa and South America, much of it accomplished using ships from the United States. (The collection appears to have another copy of this pamphlet, albeit published a year earlier [1858]. See volume 70, no. 23.)
