Excerpt from Speeches of George William Curtis, Henry Ward Beecher

The Convention resolved itself into the Committee of the Whole on the report of the Committee on the Right of Suffrage and the Qualifications to Hold Office, Mr. Alvord, of Onondaga, in the Chair.

The Chairman announced the question to be on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Cayuga (Mr. C. C. Dwight.

Mr. Curtis offered the following amendment:

"In the first section, strike out the word 'male' and wherever in that section the word 'he' occurs, add 'or she,' and wherever the word 'his' occurs, add 'or her.'"

Mr. Curtis - In proposing a change so new to our political practice, but so harmonious with the spirit and principles of our government, it is only just that I should attempt to show that it is neither repugnant to reason nor hurtful to the State.
