Complete, sound and Good. One of a tiny number of pre-Civil War abolitionist texts to have been written by a Virginia author. Paxton (1784-1868) was a Presbyterian minister, born in Rockbridge County, Virginia and educated at Princeton Theological Seminary; it is likely his mentorship there under Charles Hodge helped develop Paxton's antislavery sentiments. In 1826, after publishing an essay asserting the institution of slavery to be incompatible with the teachings of the Bible, Paxton was expelled from his pastorship of Cumberland Presbyterian Church, near Farmville in south-central Virginia. The present text, addressed to his former congregation, recounts the events of his expulsion, reprints the essay in question, and adds a series of epistolary essays supporting his theological position in oppostion to slavery. The existence of any abolitionist sentiment during this period in Virginia's history is remarkable in itself. For a native-born minister to willfully preach the gospel of antislavery (even the relatively conservative version of abolitionism professed by Paxton) before a congregation whose sentiments on the subject would have been diametrically opposed - and which doubtless included a number of slaveholding families - must have amounted to apostasy in some congregants' eyes. By publishing the present work, Paxton essentially doubled down on his unpopular beliefs, making him, in this cataloguer's eyes, a rather remarkable figure. We find it surprising that so little biographical information exists regarding Paxton. His name barely appears in the scholarly literature on the period; perhaps because no mention of abolition is made in either the title nor the sub-title of his book, the work is rarely discussed in articles on the antebellum southern antislavery movement. Though reasonably available institutionally, Letters on Slavery is perenially scarce in commerce, having appeared at auction only three times in the current century. This a quite decent copy in a discreetly restored binding. SABIN 59264. DUMOND (Antislavery Bibliography) p.89. LCP AFRO-AMERICANA 7501.…
