1863réf. 46597Manchester: Union and Emancipation Society n.d. ca. 1863. First Edition. Original broadsheet handbill 22x13.5cm.; extremities chipped with shallow losses not approaching text the whole rather dust-soiled and unevenly toned else Good or better overall. Text reproduces an address delivered by the Rev. Enoch Mellor of Liverpool "in his INAUGURAL ADDRESS at the ANNUAL MEETING of the CONGREGATIONAL UNION held in London" in which he "declared his sentiments on the present American Conflict." Mellor 1823-1881 was the life-long minister of the non-conformist Square Congregational Church in Halifax West Yorkshire with the exception of a five-year period coinciding with this address when he succeeded the abolitionist Congregational minister Thomas Raffles 1788-1863. Mellor's argument begins with reference to the Lancashire Cotton Panic an economic depression caused by a dearth of baled cotton imports following the start of the American Civil War. Mellr goes on to say that "War /may/ be wrong slavery /is/ wrong" comparing its presence on the American continent with that of the propagation of polygamy "carefully and resolutely laid as a foundation-stone in the territory of Utah.

This scarce pamphlet says the "great issue" is whether "Slavery shall be allowed to overspread a territory of greater extent than that of the whole United States" and "whether the policy of our government is to continue to be that of Slavery Extension or Slavery Restriction." All the power of the presidency is "being used to force the withering and blighting scourge of Slavery upon the National domain."

1855réf. 55824New York: American Anti-Slavery Society 1855. Criticizing the American Tract Society for Suppressing Anti-Slavery Works The scarce second printing of what is technically the first edition of this anti-slavery pamphlet printed in New York by the American Anti-Slavery Society from the same "stereotype plates.without alteration" as the edition printed in Hartford earlier the same year. The text focuses on an appeal to the American Tract Society to take a more vocal and concerted stand against slavery. The authors of the text accuse the American Tract Society of "suppression" of anti-slavery sentiment by censorship of certain works it publishes that speak against the institution and an overall sin of "studied and persistent omission" by not itself issuing "a direct condemnation of the most giant iniquity of our land." The text is signed in print at the conclusion by "The Members of the Fourth Congregational Church Hartford Conn." The work was issued as the sixteenth entry in the American Anti-Slavery Society's "Anti-Slavery Tracts." Gathered signatures stitched as issued. Minor edge wear spotting and soiling. Very good.

1771réf. 143781771. The Almanack 1771 contains an advertisement offering a fourteen-year-old enslaved Black boy for sale in Boston documenting the commercial trafficking of enslaved children in colonial Massachusetts only five years before the Declaration of Independence. The notice states: "To be sold for want of employment a likely Negro Boy that won't drink rum he is about 14 years old." Its language reduces the unnamed child to age perceived suitability and drinking habits before offering him for sale preserving direct evidence of how slavery entered the ordinary commercial language and newspaper economy of eighteenth-century Boston. A second advertisement relating to slavery appears in the same issue. The Almanack. Boston 1771. Folio newspaper approximately 15 x 10 inches. The sale notice was printed among the newspaper's advertisements rather than as a report or editorial discussion of slavery placing the transaction within the periodical's routine marketplace of property labor and services. Particularly revealing is the seller's stated reason "for want of employment" which explicitly connects the proposed sale of the fourteen-year-old boy to the enslaver's assessment of his economic utility. Slavery remained legal in Massachusetts in 1771 even as the political disputes that would culminate in the American Revolution intensified in Boston. The advertisement predates the 1780 Massachusetts Constitution and the early 1780s freedom suits associated with the effective end of slavery in the Commonwealth. As a Boston notice offering an enslaved child for sale it provides specific evidence that human bondage and its newspaper marketplace formed part of New England life during the generation that articulated revolutionary claims concerning liberty. Overall foxing scattered soiling and several small edge tears; otherwise very good condition. unknown
