Book Description
Excerpt from A Pastoral Letter, on the Religious Instruction of the Slaves: Of Members of the Protestant Episcopal Church, in the State of South-Carolina, Prepared at the Request of the Convention of the Churches of the Diocese, to Which Is Appended a Table of Sripture Lessons, Prepared on Conformity With the Resolution of the Co The first method which we would suggest to him, is the establishment of Sunday Schools, in which, aided by the pious of his flock, he may inculcate the plain and simple truths and precepts of the Gospel. If the owners be duly impressed with the importance of the religious instruction of their slaves, he will find no difficulty in collecting a large number. The School should be assembled before the morn ing service, or after it, and opened, and concluded witha form of prayer taken from the prayer book, or such form as may be prepared, or approved by the Bishop. For the children of the School, we would recommend the use of Catechism No. 23 of the Protestant Episcopal Sunday School Union, (the Church Catechism, broken into short questions and answers) and also such Catechism as may be prepared, or be caused, as herein after proposed, to be pre pared, by the Bishop: the Scripture Cards, ' or por tions of Scripture, illustrated by large Engravings, that both the eye and the ear may be engaged Watts' Divine and Moral Songs, with his summary of the Ten Commandments, and our Saviour's Golden rule, ' and Short Prayers for morning and evening, adapted to the use of children, ' (published by the Protestant Episcopal Sunday School Union.) The instruction of course to be altogether oral. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Ten Letters on the Subject of Slavery Those opposed to the doctrines of the Abolitionists, have been charged with shunning and fearing discussion; and it was intimated to the last General Assembly, by one of the Congregationalist delegates, that Presbyterians were not so communicative on this subject as they should be. Fully persuaded that that cause which will not bear discussion, is a bad one persuaded, also, that the existing agitations on the subject of slavery demand discussion, and that the discussion of the subject, in the spirit of kindness, will do good in more than one way, I ventured to address, to the Congregationalist delegates to the last General Assembly, the following letters. The interest they have awakened, and the desire expressed in different quarters, to have them printed in a more permanent form, have induced me to consent to the publication in the form in which they now appear. Every position taken in these letters might be indefinitely strengthened; but, it is believed, that sufficient evidence has been furnished to satisfy all reasonable persons.
