Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Address in Behalf of the Temperance Society, Norwalk, Connecticut, February 26th, 1833 We disavow every thing like Coercion. We want no conquered allies. We are engaged in breaking fetters, not in forging them. Neither unsound reasoning, nor crafty management, nor coercion can accomplish what we wish. What we want, is the spread of such a sentiment as will bear the severest scrutiny, and the test of time. We want no law, save that which shall take hold on the hearts of the people, and maintain, and execute, and perpetuate itself.
