PREFACE
If the support of great and good men, famous throughout Christendom, will avail to justify a cause, then indeed we who would utterly abolish the torture of animals by vivisection can never be put out of countenance.
Difficult would it be indeed to bring together the authority of so many resounding reputations against any other act of man, since slavery was abolished.
