Winchester's antislavery sermon — first delivered in Virginia in 1774, here in its 1788 London printing — attacking the slave trade as chief among the sins that bring judgment on nations. An early witness that the universalist gospel and antislavery conviction traveled together, as they would later in Adin Ballou. Scanned from the British Library's copy.
