Rev. Jonathan Cable<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Jonathan Cable was an abolitionist minister and \u201ccomeouter\u201d Free Presbyterian activist \u00a0who dedicated his life to ending\u00a0slavery and\u00a0creating educational opportunities for all.\u00a0 He worked with well known abolitionist such as Levi Coffin, John Van Zandt, John Hatfield, John Todd and contributed significantly to the work of ending slavery.\u00a0 His role in the 1853 “Escape of the 28” from Boone County, Kentucky through his home of College Hill is well documented.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

“The New School Presbyterian Synod of Indiana, has declared against Slavery by resolving unanimously that it should be made a disciplinary offense by the church. This noble decision on the part of that body, may be credited to the indefatigable labors of the Rev. Jonathan Cable; the only minister we ever knew, belonging to a Pro-Slavery Church, that dare serve God by serving humanity.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

It is said that a large minority of that respectable Synod, are ready to dissolve their connection with the General Assembly, because of the pro-slavery character. This is right. This is making progress. Let us thank God and\u00a0 <\/span>take courage and never give up.\u201d\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Farmer’s Cabinet<\/i> (Amherst, N.H.)\u00a0 <\/span>Jan. 31, 1850.<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n
