The following call for the Convention was then read: To Anti-Slavery Societies and Individuals throughout the United States. Fellow Citizens: - Being persuaded that the final overthrow of slavery would be greatly accelerated by general abstinence from the proceeds of slave labor, and having corresponded with differed societies and individuals on the subject, it is agreed to hold a convention of men and women, in Philadelphia, the 17th day of the Fifth month (May) next, to form a National Requited Labor Association; the object of which shall be to operate on the mind of the community, by exhibiting the relation the consumer sustains to the slaveholder and pursuing, ourselves, a course consistent as abolitionists; and to devise means for obtaining articles produced by freemen, whereby we may be enabled with less difficulty to refrain from partaking of goods procured through the unrequited labor of the slave and immediately to cease from encouraging and assisting slaveholders and slave-dealers in upholding the unrighteous and cruel system Societies, friendly to the measure, are requested to send delegates; and individuals approving the object, are invited to attend and be with them as members of the Convention.
