THE HUTCHINSONS THREATENED WITH A MOB!

From the Pennsylvania Freeman    Baltimore,  March 7, 1852    “The papers of this city, contained, yesterday, an announcement in the usual form that the Hutchinson Family would give a concert tomorrow evening at Carroll Hall.  The early light of this morning revealed the following responsive announcement which was posted at Carroll Hall and various other localities — especially those most lavishly supplied with rum ships;  for the upholders and votaries of rum and slavery are generally found in fellowship:   TO THE CIITZENS OF BALTIMORE   are you willing to be insulted by a band of abolitionists, singing strains of fanaticism?   Will you encourage such concerts by those whose efforts are directed against an institution guaranteed by the Constitution, and who have sought to overthrow this glorious Union?
