Question
1 massachusetts had no small part in the second great charter of liberty. this is attested not only by the signatures of hancock, adams, paline, and gerry to that great document, but here are boston, concord, lexington, and bunker hill, and a thousand memorials of the revolution besides. great indeed was the part that massachusetts played in achieving independence, greater still was her share in the emancipation of the slave. lincoln himself said that boston had done more to bring on the war than any other city, and when emancipation had been achieved he generously credited the result to the logic and moral power of garrison and the anti - slavery people.
2 this day, therefore, belongs to massachusetts. it is a part of her glorious history. emancipation was but the triumph of puritan principle - the right of each individual to eat his bread out of the sweat of his own brow or not at all. the history of the abolition of slavery in america could not be written without massachusetts left out; the history of massachusetts herself, since the emancipation, would be a dreary, barren waste without the chapter of her part in the emancipation.
select two details from the passage that provide the strongest support for this argument.
□ 1. massachusetts had no small part in the second great charter of liberty. (paragraph 1)
□ 2. this is attested not only by the signatures of hancock, adams, paline, and gerry to that great document, but here are boston, concord, lexington, and bunker hill, and a thousand memorials of the revolution besides. (paragraph 1)
□ 3. lincoln himself said that boston had done more to bring on the war than any other city and when emancipation had been achieved he generously credited the result to the logic and moral power of garrison and the anti - slavery people. (paragraph 1)
□ 4. this day, therefore, belongs to massachusetts. it is a part of her glorious history. (paragraph 2)
- For option 1: It just states Massachusetts had a part but doesn't elaborate on the strength of that part in relation to the argument.
- For option 2: Lists specific contributions (Hancock, Adams, etc.) and memorials which show the significant role Massachusetts played, supporting the argument.
- For option 3: Quotes Lincoln about Boston (a part of Massachusetts) doing more in ending slavery (a key aspect of the "second great charter of liberty" - likely referring to freedom - related argument) and mentions moral power which adds to the support.
- For option 4: Just says it belongs to Massachusetts but no details on why it's a strong support.
