Love, Alfred Henry

(1830–1913) radical pacifist, merchant; born in Philadelphia, Pa. A pioneering pacifist of highest principles, he was a wool merchant who resisted the Civil War by refusing to sell his goods for army use; when drafted (1863), he refused to serve or procure a substitute. Founder of the Universal Peace Society (1866) (later the Universal Peace Union), he and its members worked for a reconciliation between North and South and other human rights issues. He pioneered the concept of arbitration and served as a strike mediator (1880s). An uncompromising opponent of militarism, he fought for an international court, but by the eve of the Spanish-American war was considered impractical by fellow pacifists and he was even burned in effigy.
