This is a reproduction of Cassius Marcellus Clay's speech delivered in the Kentucky House of Representatives in January 1841. The speech addresses the bill to repeal the law of 1835, "to Prohibit the Importation of Slaves Into This State." Clay's passionate defense of his anti-slavery stance provides valuable insight into the political and social climate of Kentucky during this period.

It serves as a historical document reflecting the complexities and moral conflicts of the era, and the courageous voices advocating for change.
