1835?, Gaston, Speech at the Const. Conv.
|
|
Speech of the Honorably Judge Gaston, delivered at the north Carolina Constitutional Convention, presumably in 1835. The preface to the speech
indicated that the 32nd section regarding a religious test, was being used to "rouse a spirit of religious persecution" A well-respected orator and
Catholic, Gaston's speech argued against this section. In a final note at the end of this document, the amendment substituting "Christian" for "Protestant"
was passed by vote of the Convention. (Digitized from a microfilm copy of titles originally held by the New York Public Library).
