Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Oration of Henry Armitt Brown: On the One Hundredth Anniversary of the Meeting of Congress in Carpenters´ Hall and Proceedings in Connection Therewith When the Congress met, Mr. Cushing made a motion that it should be opened with prayer. It was opposed by Mr. Jay of New York, and Mr. Rutledge of South Carolina, because we were so divided in religious sentiments - some Episcopalians, some Quakers, some Anabaptists, some Presbyterians, and some Congregationalists - that we could not join in the same act of worship. Mr. Samuel Adams arose and said "that he was no bigot, and could hear a prayer from any gentleman of piety and virtue, who was at the same time a friend to his country. He was a stranger in Philadelphia, but had heard that Mr. Duche (Duchay they pronounced it) deserved that character, and therefore he moved that Mr. Duche, an Episcopalian clergyman, might be desired to read prayers to Congress to-morrow morning." The motion was seconded, and passed in the affirmative. Mr. Randolph, our President, waited on Mr. D., and received for answer that if his health would permit he certainly would. Accordingly, next morning he appeared with his clerk and in his pontificals, and read several prayers in the established form, and then read the Psalter for the seventh day of September, which was the thirty-fifth Psalm.
