Ladies' London Emancipation Society
The Ladies' London Emancipation Society was an activist abolitionist group founded in 1863, which disseminated anti-slavery material to advance British understanding of the Union cause in the American Civil War as one pertaining to morality rather than territory. This was said to be the first national anti-slavery society for women.〔Elizabeth Crawford, "Taylor , Clementia (1810–1908)", ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004 (, accessed 16 July 2015 )〕
==Foundation==
The society was established on 20 August 1863 by Clementia Taylor, also known as Mentia Taylor at Aubrey House. She formed the society in response to an open letter written by Harriet Beecher Stowe, published in the ''Atlantic Monthly'' in January 1863, calling for the women of England to support the North in the American Civil War. As a woman, her application for membership of the London Anti-Slavery Society had been turned down, and so she formed the Ladies' London Emancipation Society.〔 The two organisations worked in cooperation, although they were independent of each other.
