At the Anti-Slavery Convention of 1833, a group of abolitionists including many Quakers--notably James and Lucretia Mott, John G. Whittier, Daniel Neall Sr., and the youthful Daniel Neall Jr.--assembled in Philadelphia. The convention issued a Declaration of Sentiments, drafted by William Lloyd Garrison, and founded the American Anti-Slavery Society. In 1883, as secretary of the society, Daniel Neall Jr. helped organize the conference that celebrated the its 50th anniversary.
