Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Proceedings at the Seventeenth Annual Lincoln Dinner of the Republican Club of the City of New York: Celebrated at the Waldorf-Astoria, the Ninety-Fourth Anniversary of the Birthday of Abraham Lincoln, Thursday, February 12th 1903 The Toastmaster: I will ask the Rev. Wilton Merle Smith to say grace. Grace. Rev. Wilton Merle Smith, D. D.: O Lord, our God, sanctify unto us our fellowship and the memory of Thy servant whose work and life we honor to-night. May we here take increased devotion to the things for which He lived and died, for Christ´s sake, Amen. The Toastmaster: Ladies and Gentlemen, it is with unfeigned pleasure that I welcome all the guests who have honored the Republican Club by their presence on this anniversary of the birth of that greatest of Americans, Abraham Lincoln. (Applause.) Surely the day of all days in the calendar when Republicans should come together and commune with one another, with patriotic ardor, is the birthday of him whose blessed memory we have met to celebrate. In his time he was the cherished leader of our party; he was the representative in whom Republicans entrusted, with fear and trembling and yet with confidence, the most momentous problems that a free people ever called upon one of their number to solve. Abraham Lincoln no longer belongs exclusively to the party to which in life he was affiliated and which ever tenderly cherishes his memory. So wide and broad is his fame, that all the American people now claim him as their own. The men produced by the crisis of 1861 stand out sharply in silhouette against the sky of history. (Applause.) Examine the career of each, the great civilians and the great soldiers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
