CHAPTER XXXIII 
WHAT JUSTICE DEMANDS, GOD COMMANDS. 
Now if those from enlightened countries 
and of our own color, have done so much to 
debase that people, ought we not to do 
something to elevate them? Can justice 
demand less than this at our hands ? And 
is it not a reasonable demand? Fellow 
citizen, philanthropist, and Christian, what 
response do you make to these interroga- 
tions ? If there is a race of people on earth 
that should draw from us sympathy, and 
benevolent deeds, that race is the Afri- 
can. For my part I cannot explain how 
we can be guiltless, in the sight of high 
Heaven, unless we put forth our hands to 
raise them from the dreadful dilemma into 
which we have helped to place them ? Is 
it not to be feared that the Savior will say 
to us, u inasmuch as ve did it not unto one 
of the least of these, ye did it not to me ? " 
Depend upon it, we will be judged according 
to our works.
