Remuneration to slaveholders
June 19, 1834
In a letter to the Boston Courier, Garrison notes an article which he deems “worthy of animadversion”. The article is about someone who claims that the idea of remuneration to slave owners who liberate their slaves, is popular among members of the Anti-Slavery cause. Garrison says this “is wholly erroneous. I repel it as an aspersion.” His animadversion continues at some length in this response. 1
