Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Nation´s Sorrow: A Discourse on the Death of Abraham Lincoln, Delivered in the Larkin Street Presbyterian Church, San Francisco, April 16th, 1865 The scene presented by our city to-day is unprecedented in the history of America. Every flag in town drooping at half-mast; every church and public building, and nearly every store and private dwelling, draped in black, and eloquent with grief; faces that had scarcely shown a trace of sentiment for years, flashing or lowering with intense feeling; hard, stern-featured men weeping like women; every voice hushed to a whisper, yet keyed up with a will and resolution which no words can utter the very air alive and electrical with emotion - all, all make it evident that the hearts of our citizens are touched with sorrow as they have never been touched before. These same sad sights and sounds of woe are everywhere around us. They are seen and heard in all the towns and vine-clad valleys of the State. They are echoed back from our granite hills and snow-capped sierras. They are in all our borders, from the Klamath to the Colorado. Nor are we, on this distant Pacific slope, alone in our grief.
