But why talk of days so old ? Some of you remem- ber when the pillory and the whipping-post were a part of 29 the public furniture of the law, and occupied a prominent place in the busiest street in town. Some of you have seen men and women scourged, naked, and bleeding, in State street ; have seen men judicially branded in the forehead with a hot iron, their ears clipped off by the sheriff, and held up to teach humanity to the gaping crowd of idle boys and vulgar men. A magistrate was once bro...ught into odium in Boston for humanely giving back to his victim a part of the ear he had officially shorn off, that the mutilated member might be restored and made whole. How long is it since men sent their servants to the '' Workhouse, " to be beaten " for disobedience, " at the discretion of the master ? It is not long since the gallows was a public spectacle here in the midst of us, and a hanging made a holiday for the rabble of this city and the neighbouring towns ; even women came to see the death-struggle of a fellow-creature, and forming the larger part of the mob ; many of you remember the procession of the condemned man sitting on his coffin — a procession from the jail to the gallows — from one end of the city to the other.
