Summary
First edition. 12mo. Printed gray wrappers. An important speech on anti-slavery and women's rights. Described on the cover as a revised Phonographic Report. Mott rejects the doctrine of original human depravity, credits the birth of reform movements to people... thinking and acting for themselves. Other topics include abolition (which caused some people to leave the meeting), capital punishment, and peace. DAB notes that Mott was acknowledged as a minister among the Quakers. The Feminist Companion pp. 766-777 notes this sermon as especially noteworthy.
