Excerpt from Annual Report of the Board of Managers of the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society: Presented January 24, 1838; With an Appendix IN a struggle for the emancipation of a people, who have been for centuries groaning in bondage, it would be strange if a day or an hour could pass, without the occurrence of events deeply interesting alike to the friends and foes of the sufferers. What, then, must not a whole year bring forth? The Mana gers of the State Society are constrained to confess, that, if they should attempt to trace, minutely, the progress of the anti slavery cause, through the length and breadth of the land, since the last annual meeting, and to accompany such a delineation with elaborate reflections, their present Report would swell to the dimensions of a huge volume. Upon those topics which they have selected for consideration, they propose to dwell with as much brevity as their importance will allow.
