(quote-book ) Until his death in April 1817 (ten months before Douglass’s birth), Bingham remained a remarkable mixture of at least three elements. He held to a devout Congregationalist faith and Puritan sensibility (believing in human depravity and the sovereignty of God, and dressing in old eighteenth century style, with cocked hat and silver-buckled shoes). He was a staunch Jeffersonian in a state where few existed (he never put any money in a bank, and seems to have embodied Jefferson’s egalitarian faith in the capacities of common folk). Finally, Bingham saw the early American republic as a new political beginning for humankind, and his more than one million schoolbooks sold across the land were designed to produce republican citizens. ''Columbian Orator|The Columbian Orator'' was an elocution manual as well as a reader for children in the new republic.
