Excerpt from The History, Objects and Principles of the Order of the Sons of Temperance: An Address Delivered in Richmond, Va., December 2, 1844
The march of armies may be told But not the march of mind.
That the human intellect is susceptible of vast improvement, each age that has swept down the current of time bears ample testimony. From the moment that this ball of earth was formed and set in motion by the plastic hand of Deity, and prepared for the reception of man, the human race has con tinned to progress, and gradually to rise in the scale of being. It is true, that there are many dark, as well as bright spots, in the history of human improvement.
