Image Description:
Item is the Thirty-fourth Annual Report of the Philadelphia Female Anti-Slavery Society published in 1868 by Merrihew & Son of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.  The report is optimistic--citing various city laws and political appointments that the Society feels benefits freedmen and women--but also cautious.  The "Southern Rebel has not been changed by their defeat in battle.  When they surrendered their cannon to Gen. Grant, they did not surrender their hearts to the just claims of their slaves..."  The report quotes various newspapers from the south that suggest the Society's caution is warrented.  It  includes the treasurer's report and a list of officers: President Lucretia Mott, Vice-President Sidney Ann Lewis, Recording Secretary Gulielma Jones, Corresponding Secretary Mary Grew, Treasurer Annie Shoemaker and Managers Lucretia Mott, Hannah L. Stickney, Anna M. Hopper, Sarah H. Peirce, Rebecca S. Hart, and Rosanna Thompson.
