Description:
As the 13th annual meeting of the Anti-Slavery Society approaches, Isaac Tatem Hopper reminisces that he has lived seventy-six winters, but his "eye is not dim" nor his "natural strength abated" in fighting for the day when there are "no longer chattle [sic, i.e. chattel], but stand upright as men."
