Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Address Delivered at the Opening of the Hall of the Newark Library Association Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: - These walls, though mute, are eloquent. Rising in the midst of a city that never saw a temple such as this, they tell us as they rise that a new era dawns! In a community where the arts have been the grand object of pursuit; where sacred edifices dedicated to God declare a religious people, and schools bear witness that knowledge is valued as means to the great end for which man was made, it is a fact which may well excite surprise, that nearly two hundred years had passed since the city was founded, and no stone had yet been laid for a structure such as this! We extol the spirit of the early and later citizens of Newark. Here it is: and in all that constitutes the excellence and glory of the State, where is a city with which it will not favorably compare? In morals, intelligence, order, industry, enterprise, prosperity, social happiness it is eminent, and its name is its praise the land over.
