Abolitionists met on October 21, 1835, in Utica, NY, to form The New York State Anti-Slavery Society. Rioters forced them to go to Peterboro, New York, where Gerrit Smith welcomed them. This book tells the story of the Utica and Peterboro conventions and reproduces the Minutes of this historic event.
