It is doubtful if the draft could have been adopted without this elimination. It was the best, it was all that coutd ie done at that time. What Jefferson Attempted to write in the constitution of our country, Abraham Lincoln Afterwards wrote in blood." The speaker devoted special attention to the period immediately after the close of the revolutionary war and | before the adoption of the constitu- * tion, telling of the causes and conse- { sciences of the widespread popular dis- j content and the effort which was re- j quired from Washington to prevent j the army from placing him at the head ! :>f a “stronger government." | References were made to the fact ! that in the constitutional convention I At Philadelphia, Washington made j but one speech.
