Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Obituary Addresses on the Occasion of the Death of the Hon. Henry Clay: A Senator of the United States From the State of Kentucky After the reading of the Journal, Mr. Underwood rose, and addressed the Senate, as follows: Mr. President: I rise to announce the death of my colleague, Mr. Clay. He died at his lodgings, in the National Hotel of this city, at seventeen minutes past eleven o´clock yesterday morning, in the seventy-sixth year of his age. He expired with perfect composure, and without a groan or struggle. By his death our country has lost one of its most eminent citizens and statesmen; and, I think, its greatest genius. I shall not detain the Senate by narrating the transactions of his long and useful life. His distinguished services as a statesman are inseparably connected with the history of his country. As Representative and Speaker in the other House of Congress, as Senator in this body, as Secretary of State, and as Envoy abroad, he has, in all these positions, exhibited a wisdom and patriotism which have made a deep and lasting impression upon the grateful hearts of his countrymen.
