They proved them- selves to be inflexible against scorn, persecution, 15 and contempt ; and although ail did not live to see the conflict ended, yet their survivors never relaxed their exertions until the glorious year of 1817, when, by the wise and patriotic legislature of this state, a law was passed for its final extirpation. We will mourn for those who are gone, we will honour those who survive, until time extinguishes the lamp of their existence. When dead, they shall still live in our mem...ory ; we will follow them to their topdbs, we will wet their g^raves with our tears; and i/pon the heart of every descendant of Africa, their deeds shall be written, and their names shall vi- brate sweetly from ear to ear, down to the latest posterity. From what has already taken place, we are encouraged to expect still greater things. We look forward Avitli pleasing anticipation to that pe- riod, when it shall no longer be said that in a land of freemen there are men in bondage, but when this foul stain will be entirely erased, and this, worst of evils, will be forever done away.
