Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of the Constitutional Convention of the State of Michigan: Begun in the Capitol, at Lansing, May 15, A. D. 1867 Mr. President, I value this Manual highly for other reasons. I value it for the cherished memories it revives of the past - memories of noble men who stood shoulder to should er with me upon this floor, day after day, contending for the adoption of controverted principles in the Constitution, some of which were successfully urged, and I trust they will hold a place in all future Constitutions, as monuments of their fidelity and devotion to the right. Some of those men, though much my juniors, have long since paid the debt of nature, and preceded me to the eternal world. I hold, Mr. President, that this strangely maligned Constitution of ours, which has drawn forth so many maledictions from various sources, has still some redeeming features, some salient points, which will stand forth in all the future as oases to keep green the memory of their originators.

The whole system of treating prisoners has been changed and greatly improved. Now the effort 18 being made, with measurable success, to reform the lives, improve and elevate the thoughts of those within prison walls. And in consideration of this law this feature of it must not be forgotten. Another consideration in this proposed legislation must be carefully investigated, and that is its constitutionality. It will be worse than useless to adopt this system only to find when the Supreme Court pass upon it, that it is in violation of the constitution. And while it is possible that a law may be framed free from objections in this respect, yet there are grave doubts in relation to it, and your attention in determining this question is called to the case of the People versus James H. Moore, page 496, Vol. 62 of Michigan Reports. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
