speech on national sins? Does the gentleman
remember that freedom to preach was first gained, dragging in its
train freedom to print? I thank the clergy here present, as I
reverence their predecessors, who did not so far forget their

separate themselves from the struggle of Seventy-six--the Mayhews
and the Coopers--who remembered they were citizens before they were
clergymen....
I am glad, Sir, to see this crowded house. It is good for us to be
here. When liberty is in danger, Faneuil Hall has the right, it is
her duty, to strike the keynote of these United States. I am glad,
for one reason, that remarks such as those to which I have alluded
have been uttered here. The passage of these resolutions, in spite
of this opposition, led by the Attorney-General of the
Commonwealth, will show more clearly, more decisively, the deep
indignation with which Boston regards this outrage.
