Echoes of Harper's Ferry (Classic Reprint) by James Redpath PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from Echoes of Harper's Ferry I had two objects in View in editing this volume -first, to preserve, in a permanent form, the memorable words that have been spoken of Captain John Brown and, sec ond, to aid the families of the blacks and the men of color, who recently went to Heaven via Harper's Ferry, or who were murdered, with legal forms, at Charlestown, Virginia. The papers of which it consists have been revised by their authors, at my request; or they are printed, with their con sent, from properly corrected editions. My desire to preserve these papers, arises not so much from friendship for the memory of the Captain, or a per sonal sympathy for the surviving relatives of his brave colored followers, as from the hope that I may thereby fan the holy ame that their action kindled, until, becom ing a consuming fire, it shall burn up, with thoroughness and speed, every vestige of the crime of American Slavery. For I do most sincerely believe, notwithstanding the craven speeches of timeserving politicians, and the good God-good-dcvil exhortations of pusillanimous preachers, that the quickest way, and the most American way, and the only efficient way, in which to hasten on the Impend ing Crisis, - to bring to a speedy issue the approaching and Irresistible Con ict between Slavery and Freedom.
