Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Elgin Speeches Gentlemen, As I was looking over, some few weeks ago, the speeches which I have at various times addressed to you in Elgin or in other Burghs of the District, it occurred to me that amidst much, the interest of which, if it ever had any, has long gone by, there were in them a good many things to which some interest might still attach, at least in the opinion of critics as indulgent as you have ever been towards me. I read through, accordingly, nearly all, pencil in hand, and struck out numerous paragraphs, sentences, and phrases, in which either the matter or the form no longer pleased me, endeavouring, as much as possible, to preserve what might be least unworthy of your consecutive perusal in the year 1871, and getting rid of that element which exists, and must exist, in all speeches on the subjects of the day - viz. that which may be worth saying once, but is not worth repetition when controversies are settled.
