Minutes. 9 church has in its late action on the subject of slavery, given strong ground to believe that the hope indulged, as aforesaid^ was fallacious, and that said portion of the church looks for­ ward to no period, when negro emancipation will be required by her as a christian duty—to no lime when it will cease from the oppression of the poor and needy,—therefore, Besolved, That the time has now come, when it is the duty of the church to debar from her privileges, all who persist in the sin of holding their fellow-men in the bondage of slavery. Passed unanimously. Resolution by F. D. Parish of Sandusky: Besolved, That, in our view, the laws of this state in refer­ ence to black and mulatto persons, are inconsistent with indi­ vidual rights, opposed to the principles of natural justice and humanity, highly oppressive in their character, evasive of the provisions of the constitution of the Union, and wholly at at variance with the spirit of the constitution of our own state. Passed vna'nirnously. Resolution by Jesse Holmes of New Lisbon: Besolved, That we recommend to all our anti-slavery friends to abstain entirely from the use of articles, which are the pro­ duct of slave labor. Passed vnardmowly. Resolution by F. D. Parish of Sandusky: Resolved, That the thanks of this society be respectfully tendered to Ashley Bancroft, for the use of his barn on this occasion; and that we heartily forgive the unkindness of that portion of our fellow-citizens, which rendered it necessary to hold our meeting in so unusual a place. Passed, unani'mously.. Resolved, That the thanks of this society be tendered to such of the citizens of Granville and its vicinity, as have ex~ tended to us their kind and generous hospitalities during th& anniversary.
