It was not however known to the world that such an association existed.
It appears that they had several meetings in the course of this year.
Before the close of it they had secured a place in the General Evening Post, in Lloyd's Evening Post, in the Norwich, Bath, York, Bristol, Sherborne, Liverpool, Newcastle, and other provincial papers, for such articles as they chose to send to them.

These consisted principally of extracts from such authors, both in prose and verse, as they thought would most enlighten and interest the mind upon the subject of their institution.
In the year 1784 they pursued the same plan; but they began now to print books.

The first, was from a manuscript composed by Joseph Woods, one of the commitee.

It was entitled, Thoughts on the Slavery of the Negroes.

This manuscript was well put together.
