The Life and Work of Susan B. Anthony (Volume 1 of 2)

CHAPTER V
41/47

Lloyd Garrison, Parker Pillsbury, O.C.Burleigh and S.S.Foster.

These men are all woman's righters and preachers of such damnable doctrines and accursed heresies as would make demons of the pit shudder to hear.

We have selected a few appropriate passages from God's Bible for the consideration of the infuriated gang at the convention.
The New York Herald, under the elder Bennett, which from the beginning of the demand had been the inveterate foe of equal rights for women, contained the following editorial, September 12, 1852: The farce at Syracuse has been played out.

We publish today the last act, in which it will be seen that the authority of the Bible, as a perfect rule of faith and practice for human beings, was voted down, and what are called the laws of nature set up instead of the Christian code.

We have also a practical exhibition of the consequences that flow from woman leaving her true sphere, where she wields all her influence, and coming into public to discuss morals and politics with men.
