The North Star (Rochester)/1848/01/07/George Thompson's Speech

From Wikisource

George Thompson's Speech.—We make no apology for occupying our entire outside with this speech. To have omitted to print it would have been a wrong to the noble heart that conceived, and the eloquent lips that gave it utterance, as well as the great cause it is so well calculated to subserve. We rejoice with the three millions in bonds, that the "bow" of our eloquent friend yet abides in strength; and that, with the speech before us, he has sent another arrow into the monster, Slavery, which must do much toward shortening his existence.
