Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Eulogy on the Life, Character, and Public Services of the Late Ex-President Polk: Delivered at the Request of the Municipal Authorities of the City of Boston, July 25, 1849 Fellow Citizens: In paying a tribute to the memory of departed worth, it is impossible to suppress our sympathies and regrets. But while unable to avoid these exhibitions of the frailty of human nature, it is fortunate that they are at times attended by some consolation. This exists in the reflection that the remembrance of private virtues or long public services, when the actors in them have been withdrawn forever from the theatre of this troubled life, is likely to be useful to the living, and that to commemorate them respectfully is an act of justice to the dead. On this melancholy occasion, when the sudden departure from, among his countrymen of one who had filled a large space in their history, and partaken liberally in their highest honors, has caused the tears of millions to flow for such a bereavement, let us try to discharge fitly the debt of gratitude we owe.
