Excerpt from The History of the Chillicothe Presbytery: From Its Organization in 1799 to 1889, Prepared in Accordance With the Order of Presbytery One of the last acts of the old Continental Congress was to pass the ordinance of 1787, which contained a set of organic laws for the government of the north-west Territory. The ordinance provided that: So soon as there shall be five thousand free male inhabitants, of full age in the Territory, they should recieve authority, with time and place, to elect representatives to represent them in the Gen eral Assembly. The first election of territorial legislators was held Monday, Dec. 3d, 1798. The General Assembly met at Cincinnati, Sep. 16, 1799. They selected 'wm. Henry Harrison as delegate to the National Congress. The seat of Territorial government was changed from Cincinnati to Chillicothe, May 7, 1800. On the same day the north-west Territory was divided by act of Congress and Indiana territory was created. The ordinance provided that when ever any oi the said states shall have sixty thousand free inhabitants therein, such state shall be admitted, by its delegates, into the Con gress of the United States, on an equal footing with the original states, in all respects whatsoever; and shall be at liberty to form a permanent constitution and state government. But although the territory had not acquired sufficient population to take advantage of this provision, Congress passed an act enabling them to form a state. This act was passed April 30, 1802, and, pursuant to this ac tion of Congress, an election was held on the second Tuesday of Cc tober, 1802, for the election of delegates to a constitutional convention.

Reflecting a prodigious amount of research in primary and secondary sources, this book examines the efforts of American abolitionists to bring northern religious institutions to the forefront of the antislavery movement. John R. McKivigan employs both conventional and quantitative historical techniques to assess the positions adopted by various churches in the North during the growing conflict over slavery, and to analyze the stratagems adopted by American abolitionists during the 1840s and 1850s to persuade northern churches to condemn slavery and to endorse emancipation. Working for three decades to gain church support for their crusade, the abolitionists were the first to use many of the tactics of later generations of radicals and reformers who were also attempting to enlist conservative institutions in the struggle for social change. To correct what he regards to be significant misperceptions concerning church-oriented abolitionism, McKivigan concentrates on the effects of the abolitionists' frequent failures, the division of their movement, and the changes in their attitudes and tactics in dealing with the churches. By examining the pre-Civil War schisms in the Presbyterian, Baptist, and Methodist denominations, he shows why northern religious bodies refused to embrace abolitionism even after the defection of most southern members. He concludes that despite significant antislavery action by a few small denominations, most American churches resisted committing themselves to abolitionist principles and programs before the Civil War. In a period when attention is again being focused on the role of religious bodies in influencing efforts to solve America's social problems, this book is especially timely.

The first biography of a key and complex American religious figure of the nineteenth century, considered by many to be the "father of Shaker literature." Richard McNemar (1770–1839) led a remarkable life, replete with twists and turns that influenced American religions in many ways during the early nineteenth century. Beginning as a Presbyterian minister in the Midwest, he took his preaching and the practice of his congregation in a radically different, evangelical "free will" direction during the Kentucky Revival. A cornerstone of his New Light church in Ohio was spontaneous physical movement and exhortations. After Shaker missionaries arrived, McNemar converted and soon played a prominent role in expanding and raising public awareness of their religion by founding Shaker communities in the Midwest, becoming the first Shaker published author and the most prolific composer of Shaker hymns. Split between two opposing religious traditions—an evangelical movement attracting tens of thousands and Shakerism, which drew only hundreds to its villages—Richard McNemar's life poses a challenge for any biographer. Christian Goodwillie's mastery of the archival records surrounding McNemar and the Shakers allows him to tell McNemar's story in a way that fully captures the complexity of the man and the scope of his enduring legacy in American religious history.

Despite provocation, Garrison was a proponent of nonresistance during this period, though he continued to advocate the emancipation of slaves. Set against a background of wide-ranging travels throughout the western U.S. and of family affairs back home in Boston, these letters make a distinctive contribution to antebellum life and thought.
