Excerpt from Discourse Before the Rhode Island Historical Society at Its Centennial Celebration of the Rhode Island's Adoption of the Federal Constitution, in Providence, R. I., May 29, 1890

O God, our fathers were not always wise. They could not on all occasions see the right way or read the signs of their times. They could not perfectly make out the future. May we, and may all men, judge them with circumspection and with charity. They were conscientious; and we bless Thee that Thou didst lead them better than they knew, at last to cast in their lot with the great sisterhood of States in com pany with whom they had fought out their liberties.
