Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifth Annual Report of the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society, 1838 At the commencement of the year, the Socie ty subscribed for fifty copies of the Liberator, to be distributed in various towns in the State. From many of these, we have had most cheering accounts of the good effect produced by this ef fort. Societies have been formed and an interest excited, where before [but little had been thought or felt on the subject. Its soul-stirring truths and affecting appeals to the hearts and consciences of its readers, cannot fail to silence the 'cavils of the sceptical, and bring into action all the nobler feelings of the soul. In October last, a committee was/appointed to invite Sarah M. And Angelina E. Gritnke to lec ture before the Society. The committee report ed'at a subsequentmeeting, that these ladies had consented to address the Society, and that they 'had engaged the Odeon for that purpose, at 20 dollars per evening. By giving the public an op portunity of hearing these devoted sisters plead the cause of the oppressed, we cherished the hope that the good seed sown by them would spring up and bring forth fruit, and we trust we have not been disappointed.
