On vec. 19.4 Pulpit & Pew I own a pnoat interesting coin, Minted in the ‘United States in 1888, one side looks like a regular American one ‘cent piece, while the other. side pictures a woman strip- «ped to the waist, on one knee, her hands together in sup- plication, her head looking ‘up. She's either pleading, or praying. Maybe both, If, you look closely you'll see the chain extending from her manacled wrist to a stake in the ground. Around the outside are the words,“Am I not ‘a woman ahd a sister.” This one cent piece, ac- tually one.of the many vari- eties of privately issued to- kens used as regular money at-the time, was obviously part of one of the great movements of the, day: that of the abolition of slavery. When I lived briefly in the southern U.S. I was told that the American Civil'War was started by the north for . purely economic reasons, and had nothing at all to do with the question of slavery. Ididn’t believe it then, and don't believe it now, after having“read everything on that period of history that my leisure time has allowed. ° For many. décades, before the Civil War, slavery was a burning issue on jthe cons- cience. of good people, es- pecially sincerely . ellgious people.
