Family portrait lithograph on cover: Bouve. 10 pp. Folio. The Hutchinsons, from New Hampshire, were Abolitionist performers who gave antislavery concerts across the country, and at the White House for President Tyler in 1844. Frederick Douglass once said that the Hutchinson Family Singers' because they possessed such "fine talent for music could have secured for them wealth and fame, but, like Moses, they preferred to suffer affliction in the cause of justice and liberty." After emancipation, they turned their cause to women's suffrage. (Brodsky Lawrence, p. 304). .
