Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Eulogy on the Late Honorable John Caldwell Calhoun: Delivered at Columbia, South Carolina, on Thursday, May 16, 1850 Columbia, S.C., May 17th, 1850. My Dear Sir: The completeness of your performance on yesterday, as the Eulogist of the late distinguished Statesman and Patriot, the Hon. John Caldwell Calhoun, filled your fellow-citizens, by whose request you undertook the task, with emotions of the profoundest gratitude and admiration, absolutely nothing being wanting to render it a perfect tribute; and as a mark of their appreciation of it, and of respect for the author, and that it may be perpetuated in an enduring form for the benefit of posterity, I am instructed to request of you a copy for publication. I ardently desire that their application may meet with your assent, and on their behalf I respectfully address it to you. I am with profound regard, dear Sir, your very obedient servant, James D. Tradewell, Chairman of Committee of Citizens, &c. To Robert Henry, D. D. Columbia, S.C., May 18th, 1850. My Dear Sir: Your assurance, through your obliging communication of yesterday, that my recent effort to pay an appropriate tribute of respect, to the memory and character of our exalted fellow-citizen and statesman, the late Hon. John Caldwell Calhoun, had met with the approbation of our community, is a source of the highest gratification to me. No one, however, can be more sensible than myself, that the success of the speaker, was chiefly owing to the noble subject presented for his Eulogy, and to the fact that the associations and feelings of hearers were in perfect unison with the occasion.
