What reading level is That We May Have Peace We Must Now Make War Address of William M Dickson At G book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The fathers of the Constitution looked upon slavery as an evil and treated it as an evil. This will not be questioned by any one who is familiar with the writings of Washington, Jeflerson, Madi- son, Hamilton, Franklin and others. Indeed, by the candid men of the South this is conceded. Stephens, of Georgia, in a memorable speech, says: ""The prevailing ideas enter- tained by Jefferson and most of the leading statesmen at the time of the formation of the old Constitution were that the enslaveme...nt of the African was in violation of the laws of nature, that it was wrong in principle, socially, moralh' and politically. " The divinity of slavery is a doctrine of later growth. It was not, it could not have been born in the age of the Declaration of Independence. Looking upon slavery as an evil, the fathers prohibited the introduction of slaves from aljroad. A large majority of the Convention that formed the Constitution desired to put into it an immediate prohibition of the importation of slaves; but in a spirit of concession to the then selfish demands of South Carolina, the provision of the Constitution not permitting Congress to prohibit the slave trade before 1808, was adopted.
