Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from On Receiving Donations From Holders of Slaves
In what I am about to write now, no attempt will be made to reply directly to the six reasons which you adduce against receiving donations from those who hold slaves though considerations might, perhaps, be advanced on this point, which would, at least, detract somewhat from their force and conclusiveness; but admitting, for the present, that the reasons are well founded, some practical difficulties will be mentioned, which seem to lie in the way of apply ing the principle involved in them, in transacting the business of the Board difficulties so numerous and great, that, until a suitable method of removing them shall be de vised, the course which you propose cannot well be adopted.
