Mr. Cookman believed it to be right, and was ready to give it his most hearty support. In his own Conference, of some three hundred members, all but five or six were against him. Perhaps no single act in Cookman's life gave evidence of greater moral heroism than this. He was young and popular, and was really the idol of the Conference. In the matter of stand- ing and reputation in the Conference, he had everything to lose, and nothing to gain. But principle was more to him than popularity. Many... of his ardent friends and admirers were in the South, where he had been educated, and these friends were, many of them, slavehold- ers. To vote for this measure was vir- tually to declare these persons sinners, 91 Ardent Love for American Bondmen. and yet he believed that many of them were lovers of Jesus, and that he should meet them in heaven. But Alfred Cook- man believed that stern duty required him to support the measure. And with- out questioning the piety or virtue of the people who were involved in slavehold- ing, he must do his duty.
