Synopsis
Excerpt from 1862 Emancipation Day 1884: The Negro as a Political Problem; Oration by the Hon. George W. Williams of Massachusetts, at the Asbury Church, Washington, D. C., April 16, 1884
In the articles of concession, the people then living in the District of Columbia did not reserve any vested rights. They had no indefeasible possessory right to slave property. There was nothing in the Constitution justifying the existence of the evil at the very seat of the American government. So, then, the crime was permitted for more than sixty years.
