Стр. 85 - I should like to know if, taking this old Declaration of Independence, which declares that all men are equal upon principle, and making exceptions to it, where will it stop ? If one man says it does not mean a negro, why not another say it does not mean some other man. ? If that declaration is not the truth, let, us get the Statute book, in which we find it, and tear it out!
Стр. 86 - I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor...
Стр. 322 - ... principalities and powers, and the rulers of the darkness of this world, even spiritual wickedness (or wicked spirits) in high places (above the greatest men that are their servants).
Стр. 161 - Washington, Madison, or the framers of this government.
