Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This is a eulogy by my ancestor, J.H.Greene, on the death of H.G. Blake.

The following is from the site "Everything Medina, Ohio".

Harrison Gray Blake (1819-1876) routinely ignored the Fugitive Slave Laws and hid runaway slaves in his handsome home home on East Washington Street. It was a terrible risk in those days to harbor slaves — the fines were prohibitive and could bankrupt a family. Blake had a great deal to lose. He had come to Medina as a penniless orphan and, within a decade, had become a wealthy and influential man: a lawyer, Speaker of the Ohio Legislature, U.S. Congressman, founder of the Old Phoenix Bank.
