Fifty Years of Freedom

WITH MATTERS OF VITAL IMPORTANCE TO BOTH THE

THE UNITED STATES

—BY—

REV. FRANCIS J. GRIMKE, D. D.

Delivered before the Presbyterian Council in the Madison Street

Presbyterian Church, Baltimore, Maryland, October 17, 1913.

And before the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church,

Washington, D. C., October 26, 1913.

"Oh, speed the moment on

When Wrong shall cease, and Liberty and Love

And Truth and Right throughout the

earth be known

As in their home above."

"Voice of a ransomed race, sing on

Till Freedom's every right is won,

And slavery's every wrong undone!"

"Sail on! The morning cometh,

The port ye yet shall win;

All all the bells of God shall ring

The good ship bravely in!"
