To His Excellency The Governor of the State of Illinois Sir, I have the honor on behalf of the Committee of the British & Foreign Anti-Slavery Society, to enclose, & to call your attention to, the copy of an Address which the Committee <hr /> have issued, with the object of evoking an expression of sympathy with those, in the United States of America, who are endeavouring to secure justice for the Slave I also beg to enclose the copy of a letter which the Committee have addressed to the President. It would be gratifying to the Committee to learn, that you <hr /> had decided it desirable to bring this fact under the notice of your Council & the people of your State, and to assure them that the Sentiments expressed in the address, are those of the people of this country. I am Excellency, Yours very Respectfully L.A. Chamerovzow Secy 27 New Broad St. E.C. London, 17th. Nov. 1862 <hr /> The crisis in the United States. Address of the Committee of the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society. The Committee of the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society, having observed, with the deepest sorrow, the efforts which are being made to infuse into the minds of the people of this Country, sentiments friendly to Slavery, feel it to be their duty to reiterate, and to commend to the serious consideration of their fellow Countrymen, the fundamental principle of the anti-slavery movement in England; that "Slave holding is a Sin and a Crime before God"; and therefore, that unconditional Emancipation, wherever Slavery is maintained, is alone consistent with the Divine Law, and with the requirements of justice and humanity. While the Committee believe that the efforts referred to, have not yet pervaded the <hr /> community at large, the tone and spirit of certain articles in a portion of the public press, the misrepresentation and perversion of facts, the biased addresses of many men of influence, all with the manifest tendency to bespeak favor for those who are contending for the extension and consolidation of Slavery, and to disparage and discourage efforts directed to its extinction, impress the Committee with the painful conviction, that in some quarters, a demoralizing effect has been produced. The Committee deplore, and regard with profound grief, the fratricidal conflict between the two sections of the American Union, but, while anxious to avoid expressing any opinion likely to be construed into an approval of a War policy, they regard it as established beyond disproof, that the South was not only the aggressor, but designedly provoked an armed contest with the United States' Government, <hr /> with the express, sole object of founding a Confederacy to perpetuate Slavery. On the other hand, the United States Government, embracing the political anti-slavery party of the North, commonly called the Republican party, has initiated and carried into effect, measures in furtherance of Negro emancipation, which entitle it to the sympathy of all true friends of freedom. It has enforced the Statutes against Slave trading, which former administrations, being pro-slavery, had allowed to become inoperative, and has prosecuted Slave traders to conviction and punishment; it has entered into a new anti-slave trade treaty with Great Britain, conceding a right of search, which former Government, overruled by the Southern party, had steadfastly refused; to promote the speedy settlement of the Territories, by a non Slave-holding population, it has enacted a Homestead Bill, giving a hundred and sixty acres of land to every immigrant, irrespective of his national origin; and moreover, carrying into effect the policy of Jefferson, ratified by Act of Congress in <hr /> 1789, it has prohibited slavery for ever, in those Territories, upon which issue alone, the Southern Candidate for the Presidency, was defeated at the election which immediately preceded the present rebellion; it has also abolished Slavery from the District of Columbia; it has virtually repealed the Fugitive Slave Act, by prohibiting the rendition of Slaves escaping from the rebel States, to the lines of the United States Army, providing compensation on account of such as may belong to loyal Citizens; it has recognized and entered into diplomatic relations with the Negro Republics of Liberia and Haiti; by the Confiscation Bill, considerably made non-retrospective, it, in effect, proclaimed emancipation to the Slaves in the rebel States, within a specified period; a majority in Congress has ratified the President's plan of compensated emancipation for such Slave States, as may elect to take advantage of it, <hr /> and only recently, the President has announced that the details of the measure will be submitted to the next Congress, with a view to its immediate practical application; lastly, the President has lately issued a Proclamation, declaring absolutely and for ever free, all the Slaves in those States which shall be in rebellion on the 1st. of January next, and pointing to the measures in progress for the abolition of Slavery in the Loyal States, upon the principle of indemnification. While the Committee deprecate a resort to Arms, even with the avowed purpose of promoting the extinction of Slavery, they reiterate the opinion that the friends of the Slave, in the United States, under whatsoever designation, have established a just claim upon the sympathy of the friends of freedom throughout Europe. <hr /> In this spirit, and with the object of evoking such an expression of sympathy as shall encourage the Emancipation party in the United States, in their most difficult position, to persevere in their endeavours to obtain justice for the Slave, the Committee issue the present address, earnestly commending it to the favorable consideration of their fellow Countrymen, and to the friends of humanity in all lands. On behalf of the Committee. Thomas Binns Chairman S.A. Chamerovzow. Secretary. 27 New Broad St. E.C. London, 17th November 1862. <hr /> To His Excellency Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States of America Sir It has seemed desirable to the Committee of the British & Foreign Anti-Slavery Society, to issue as the present Crisis, an Address to the Friends of the Anti-Slavery Cause, of which a Copy is annexed. In directing your attention to it, the Committee would take advantage of the opportunity to assure you of their personal respect and sympathy, & of their appreciation of the exceeding great difficulties of your position; - Since your accession to Office they have watched with deep interest, the progress of events, & especially the gradual development of a policy tending to promote Negro Emancipation. If certain measures in furtherance of that policy and some apparently inconsistent with it, have not recommended themselves to the approval of the Committee they have nevertheless recognized the majority of them with satisfaction as conducive, in the main, to the interests of the enslaved portion of the African race. The Committee earnestly desire that the sanguinary conflict between the 2 Sections of the Union <hr /> may cease, and that with the removal of the sole cause of this strife, a way may open for a reconciliation upon the enduring basis of a community of interests, and a mutual forgiveness of injuries. 27 New Bond Street E.C.

Title A name given to the resource Monticello College Collection Subject The topic of the resource Women's colleges Universities and colleges Monticello College Monticello Female Seminary Haskell, Harriet, 1835-1907 Illinois--Godfrey Godfrey, Benjamin, 1794-1862 Description An account of the resource Monticello College first began as the Monticello Female Seminary in 1838. Founded by Captain Benjamin Godfrey to provide education for women, the school offered two years of classes for attendees based on the idea that “if you educate a man you educate an individual; educate a woman and you educate a whole family.” Godfrey selected Reverend Theron Baldwin to serve as the first head of the Monticello Female Seminary. In 1867 Harriet Haskell became principal, a position she held until her death in 1907.  On November 4, 1888, a fire broke out in the building and consumed the entire structure. Ms. Haskell and the school's Board of Trustees successfully fundraised for a new building and rebuilt the school in two years. The school's leadership made the decision to close the school in 1970 with the final class graduating in 1971. Lewis and Clark Community College completed the purchase of the Monticello College campus in 1972.

Sir: No preparations are being made to send nurses to the field and if there was any required there is no fund from which I could draw to pay the expense as the State Treasurer refuses to pay on appropriations made by last Legislature for benefit of Sick and wounded Soldiers. Surgeons of Hospitals employ nurses and you might [probably?] get employment by making application. Very Respectfully Richd Yates Governor.
