Samuel J. Levick (1819-1885) worked for the abolition of slavery and was treasurer of the Junior Anti-Slavery Society when I was young. He was also active in several other anti-Slavery societies, participating in debates on abolition and supporting the free-produce movement. Secretly, he belonged to William Still's Vigilance Committee, which aided fugitive slaves coming into Philadelphia; served on both the Standing Committee and the Finance Committee.
