And also an M. E. Minister, linked arms and led the mobocrats in taking forcible and armed possession of the church to be occupied by these speakers, determined at all hazard to prevent the meeting from being held there. Elder Dickey was to deliver an address on "The Bible View of Slavery". The pro-slavery people were not willing that he should speak, saying that "if anyone could expound the Bible with convincing argument it was Elder Dickey". With violence and throwing rotten eggs they aispers...ed the anti-slavery meeting.
Mrs. James Robison of Tremont said, "I never climbed mto my wagon so quick in my life as when those mobo- crats broke loose with their determination to break up the meeting. Anthony Field, then a class-leader in the Wash- mgton M. E. Church, was pursued to the creek on South Main street and given a veritable shower of the decomposed product. He was turned from the church because of the unchristian spirit of its leaders.
A prominent man of conservative views on the slavery question advised the anti-slavery men not to hold the meet- ing, as they were detemined to do, as the mob, he said, was frenzied with hquor and he feared the consequences So they concluded to go to the Pleasant Grove church at Groveland, where they addressed one of the most enthusiastic anti- slavery meetings ever held in this part of the state.
