Abiel Abbot D.D. with the best love of his nephew A. A. Livermore." Horace Mann politician and educator came from humble beginnings but by his own exertions he was graduated at Brown in 1819. After his graduation he was tutor in Latin and Greek in Brown entered the Litchfield Connecticut law-school in 1821 and in 1823 was admitted to the bar opening an office in Dedham Massachusetts. He was elected to the legislature in 1827 and was active in the interests of education public charities and laws for the suppression of intemperance and lotteries. He established the State lunatic asylum at Worcester and in 1833 was chairman of its board of trustees. He continued to be returned to the legislature as representative from Dedham till his removal to Boston in 1833 when he entered into partnership with Edward G. Boring. In the practice of his profession he adopted the principle never to take the unjust side of any cause and he is said to have gained four fifths of the cases in which he was engaged the influence that he exerted over the juries being due in a great measure to the confidence that all felt in his honesty of purpose. He was elected to the State Senate from Boston in 1833 was its President 1836-7. From 1837 to 1848 he was Secretary of the Massachusetts Board of Education. In the spring of 1848 he was elected to the U.S. Congress as a Whig to fill the vacancy caused by the death of John Quincy Adams. His first speech in that body was in advocacy of its right and duty to exclude slavery from the territories. In 1850 he was engaged in a controversy with Daniel Webster in regard to the extension of slavery and the fugitive-slave law. Mann was defeated by a single vote at the ensuing nominating convention by Mr. Webster's supporters; but on appealing to the people as an Independent Anti-Slavery candidate he was re-elected serving from 1848 to 1853. In September 1852 he was nominated for Governor of Massachusetts by the Free-Soil Party and the same day was chosen President of Antioch College. Failing in the election for governor he accepted the Presidency of the college in which he continued until his death. He carried that institution through pecuniary and other difficulties and satisfied himself of the practicality of co-education.
