Rawls deliverod the second of his series of lectures on the constitution of the United States or rather the circumstances that prevailed at the time of its formation and the bitter opposition shown to its adoption by the various colonies, before the Young Men's Bible Class of the Methodist church. The "first lecture had been on the condition of affairs leading to the time of the constittuional convention and last evening he took up the sen timent of the people of the colonies toward the adoption of the finished document and the great Virginia convention of June, 17S8, which had made a thorough discussion of the document. Mr. Rawls in opening, explained the circumstances in which the pio neers had lived, in isolation from their fellowmen in the heart of the great wilderness and the spirit of individuality that had been built up by the necessity of each person pro tecting their life and property with out the benefit of any organized gov ernment and which consequently had raised a sentiment against a strong form of government. The lack of facilities of communication had also tended to make of the colonist a strong opponent of the bonds of gov ernment. The speaker pointed out the weakness of the continental con gress that had been in session at the time of the war and which had con tributed little or nothing to the suc cess of the war aside from the de claration of independence and many of whom returned to their homes rather than remain and assist as best they could the furnishing of supplies to the army, and this had embittered the leader of the soldiers, General Washington. These facts were given to show the lack of the spirit to form a strong government that would bind together the" colonies and many fa vored the continuance of the loosely drawn articles of confederation un der which the makeshift government had been operated up to the time of the withdrawal of the British troops and the close of the war of independ ence. A very interesting sketch of the great Virginia convention, held to elect delegates to accept or reject the constitution in .1788, was given by Mr. Rawls and in his descriptions one could almost see the benches fill ed with the great leaders of that day in the Old Dominion, including Pat rick Henry, leader of the opposition to the constitution and matchless orator of the revolution; George Mason, who, with Henry, was among the spirits that opposed 'the pact, and James Madison, clever and re sourceful as the head of the forces in favor of the new constitution, and with him. John Randolph, governor of the colony; George Nichols and Edmund Payton, aged leader of the state, and John Marshall, later chief justice of the supreme court. The wonderful debates of the two forces had furnished the greatest discussion ever held on the document and after the days of argument the constitution was adopted by a mar gin of ten votes. In his address, Mr. Rawls gave many extracts from the speeches of the debators which showed the won derful minds that had been arrayed in the struggle and also the senti ment that prevailed against the re straining bonds of a centralized form au r s s i, w cf it among the rank and timm FERRY NOW RUNNING river as usual from this date on.

The use of astute political meth ods to carry the constitution was pointed out by the speaker and these had more, to do with the success of the document than the great debates at that time altho the discussions gave the future generations a glimpse of the wonderful men who had been the leaders in the struggle.
