Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Address Before the Phi Beta Kappa Society of Harvard University, July 1, 1886 No one can visit Cambridge this summer without remembering that two hundred and fifty years ago, an acorn was here planted from which an oak has grown. No scholar can come from a distant state without wishing to offer his tribute, however inadequate it may be, to the wisdom which has governed the counsels of Harvard through eight generations. A graduate of Yale will, I trust, be pardoned for associating the name of his own alma mater with that of her elder sister. Their united influence has not only been strong in New England, - but strong in other portions of the land. It is difficult to surmise what would have been the condition of American society if these foundations had never existed. Their graduates have promoted the literature, the science, the statesmanship and the religion of the land, - but more than this is true.
