"Higher, far higher than the labor of the coral, loftier than the toil of the monks, is the work allotted to the man of color in these United States. Like them he is doomed to toil, but he toils with a reward constantly in his grasp, with the glorious result full in his view. He knows that the progress of mankind is entrusted to his keeping, and he toils for the advent of that time of 'blissful tranquility ' for the race, 'when the spiritual shall become regnant over the carnal.'"
