"Senatorial Character" by C. A. Bartol is a sermon delivered in West Church, Boston, written in the late 19th century. The book commemorates the life and contributions of Charles Sumner, a prominent American senator known for his advocacy for civil rights and his fierce opposition to slavery. Bartol's writing reflects on the moral and ethical dimensions of Sumner's character, attempting to capture the essence of his political legacy and the impact of his death. The sermon begins with a reflection on the purpose of the pulpit, which Bartol argues should focus on real-life examples of virtue and character. He praises Sumner as an exemplar of moral integrity, contrasting him with other political figures and emphasizing his unwavering commitment to justice and equality. The text navigates through Sumner's political career, acknowledging his limitations as a thinker but celebrating his sincere dedication to humanitarian causes. Overall, Bartol portrays Sumner as a martyr of noble principles, whose influence extended beyond his immediate political accomplishments, advocating a continuous pursuit of a just and fair society.
