Book excerpt: Excerpt from Francis Griffith Newlands (Late a Senator From Nevada) Memorial Addresses Delivered in the Senate of the United States, Sixty-Fifth Congress: Proceedings in the Senate September 2, 1918, Proceedings in the House January 3, 1918 The Chaplain, Rev. Forrest J. Prettyman, D. D., offered the following prayer: Almighty God, in Thy great goodness Thou hast brought us to the beginning of a new year. Thou hast enabled us to write one of the fairest and greatest pages in the history of the whole world in the year that has gone. We bless Thee that Thou hast led us through the year with unity of spirit and with devotion to the great and high ideals to which this Nation has been consecrated. We pray Thee that as we begin the new year we may begin it under the inspiration and guidance of God alone. Let Thy blessing rest upon every man whom Thou hast called to a place of influence in this Nation, that he may feel the support and interest and cooperation of all the citizenship, that we may continue the unity of spirit and purpose and effort until success comes to our enterprise. We miss the genial face to-day of one of our colleagues in this Chamber whom Thou hast called to the great beyond. We thank Thee for the wide influence, for the friendship, for the inspiration of his life. We pray that Thy blessing may rest upon the inner circle of his loved ones and that his memory may abide as an inspiration to us all in this Chamber. Now, God our Father, guide us by Thy counsel. Give to us the continual influence of Thy Spirit. Bring us to the end of our great national enterprise for the establishment of peace and brotherhood in the earth. For Christ's sake. Amen.
