Excerpt from A Discourse Delivered Before the Rhode-Island Historical Society, on January 18th, 1848: On the Character and Writings of Chief Justice Durfee

I shall not then seek to praise nor is it my purpose to attempt to stir the fountains of grief, already so deeply moved; nor yet to assuage the sorrow which this event has occasioned. But, I would avail myself of the sensibility which it has naturally produced in the public mind, to impress it with some of the lessons of duty, virtue, and wisdom bequeathed us by our departed fellow citizen.
