The Sum Of All Is,

Shame On The Men Who Can Court Exemption From Present Trouble And Expense At The Price Of Their Own Posterity's Liberty!

Nothing Is More Essential To The Establishment Of Manners In A State Than That All Persons Employed In Places Of Power And Trust Must Be Men Of Unexceptionable Characters.

The Public Cannot Be Too Curious Concerning The Characters Of Public Men.

Let Each Citizen Remember At The Moment He Is Offering His Vote...that He Is Executing One Of The Most Solemn Trusts In Human Society For Which He Is Accountable To God And His Country.

Let Us Contemplate Our Forefathers, And Posterity, And Resolve To Maintain The Rights Bequeathed To Us From The Former, For The Sake Of The Latter. The Necessity Of The Times, More Than Ever, Calls For Our Utmost Circumspection, Deliberation, Fortitude And Perseverance. Let Us Remember That "if We Suffer Tamely A Lawless Attack Upon Our Liberty, We Encourage It, And Involve Others In Our Doom," It Is A Very Serious Consideration That Millions Yet Unborn May Be The Miserable Sharers Of The Event.
