In 1826, William Morgan, your free fellow citizen, was, by highly exalted

members of the masonic fraternity, with unlawful violence, seized,-- secretly

transported through the country more than one hundred miles, to a fortress of

the United States, then in charge of freemasons, who had prepared it for his

reception,-- there imprisoned, several days and nights, against his utmost

efforts to escape,-- and after suffering the most unmanly insults, and the most

inhuman abuse, he was privately murdered.
