whom he belongs. He can possess nothing, nor acquire anything, but
what must belong to his master.’ I do not wish by any means to intimate
that the condition of free women can be compared to that of slaves in
suffering, or in degradation; still, I believe the laws which deprive
married women of their rights and privileges, have a tendency to lessen
them in their own estimation as moral and responsible beings, and that
their being made by civil law inferior to their husbands, has a debasing
and mischievous effect upon them, teaching them practically the fatal
lesson to look unto man for protection and indulgence.
Ecclesiastical bodies, I believe, without exception, follow the example
of legislative assemblies, in excluding woman from any participation in
forming the discipline by which she is governed. The men frame the
laws, and, with few exceptions, claim to execute them on both sexes. In
ecclesiastical, as well as civil courts, woman is tried and condemned, not
by a jury of her peers, but by beings, who regard themselves as her
superiors in the scale of creation. Although looked upon as an inferior,
when considered as an intellectual being, woman is punished with the
same severity as man, when she is guilty of moral offences. Her
condition resembles, in some measure, that of the slave, who, while he is
denied the advantages of his more enlightened master, is treated with
even greater rigor of the law. Hoping that in the various reformations of
the day, women may be relieved from some of their legal disabilities, I
remain,
