Excerpt from Charles Sumner: An Address
Those who were privileged to be much in his presence knew well that his moral earnestness and his passion for justice were united with a most highly cultured and genial personality. He was an impersonation not only of Conscience, but also of those human traits which make men loved by those who enjoy their friendship.
While I do not claim that this Address is the final word about the great Massachusetts senator, I can honestly say that I have taken pains to speak on all points by the book and to present the man, Charles Sumner, in his habit as he lived. Part of the Address was read, on January 8, 1911, to the congregation of the Third Religious Society of Dorchester, Mass. It has also been given to the Newton Tuesday Club. Somewhat condensed, it was delivered in Sanders Theatre, Cambridge, on May 30, 1911, before the Memorial Society of Harvard University.
Henry G. Spaulding. 1470 beacon street, brookline, mass., August, 1911.
