Weren't there FOUR boxes (maybe not in Frederick Douglass' quote but there was a first box, the soap-box:
  1. Soap-box (proclaiming, protests)
  2. Ballot box (voting)
  3. Jury-box (courts)
  4. Cartridge box (arms)
Maybe I'm thinking of a later version...

The typical American only knows of these boxes:
  1. The Twinkie Box. Mmmmmm. Yummy.
  2. The Dox Box. That stupid internet foe. Let's find out all about him.
  3. Mike Tyson Box. Let's watch his latest fight against Jake Paul!
