The Anti-Slavery Examiner, Part 2 of 4

CHAPTER III
210/620

Let the Anti-slavery friends know the state of things, and urge them to redoubled diligence.

The House of Assembly will meet on the 30th instant, and then, I fear, dreadful measures will be taken.

A letter from Mr.Harker, of the Jamaica Royal Gazette, about a fortnight since, addressed to Mr.Abbott, shows what absolute and cruel statutes they would wish either to act upon, or to make the models of new laws.
Every act must be watched with the most jealous scrutiny.

Experience shows that the planters possess an ingenuity truly diabolical, in twisting and distorting the laws to suit their own selfish purpose.

Our hope is in British Christians; and we confidently hope every one of them will feel the importance of increased diligence, lest the great, and long prayed-for boon of freedom, should become a curse, instead of a blessing.
