Framing the 1858 legislative assembly and religious duties
The piece describes a Friday session adjournment to 11 a.m., committee appointments to inform the governor, and a procession to the Old South for a state clergy-led service. Rev Huntington delivers a sermon urging legislators to subordinate law to God, stressing virtue, honesty, and public duty, with admonitions against bribery and cowardice.
