In 1787-88 he jointly produced many essays with John Jay and James Madison explaining the Constitution known as "The Federalist". They published 85 essays and Hamilton produced two-third of that. In the time of passing the Constitution many delegates are not interested in signing it. They thought that the Bill would restrict the rights of the States. Hamilton made a point in the essays that the Constitution was not against the States and defended the constitution through his writings like "General Power of Taxation", "Dangers from Dissensions Between the States", and "Defects of the Present Confederation" Hamilton and the U.S. Constitution).

He has spoke more in the Constitutional Convention to get clear the design of the Constitution. Morris has been part of preparing the final draft of the Constitution. He had written the Preamble and an Obligation of Contracts Clause. James Madison said "The finish given to the style and arrangement of the Constitution fairly belongs to the pen of Mr. Morris." It is great honor to the Morris that the Whole constitution was given to him to prepare a neat drat. He reduced the 23 articles to the Seven and written the preamble documents.
