“I now leave, not knowing when or whether I may return, to a task before me greater than that which rested upon Washington. Without the assistance of that Divine Being who ever attended him, I cannot succeed. With that assistance, I cannot fail.

To His care commending you, as I hope in your prayers you will commend me, I bid you an affectionate farewell.”
