Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Address Delivered Before a Joint Convention of the Senate and House of Representatives of the General Court of Massachusetts Mr. President, Mr. Speaker, Your Excellency, Senators and Gentlemen of the House of Representatives: - By your kind request I am here. An invitation from you is to me a command which it is at once an honor and a pleasure to obey. But in thus honoring me you have suddenly imposed upon me a duty which it is not easy worthily to fulfill. You have asked me to address you upon this, the one hundredth anniversary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln; to express for you and to you some of the thoughts which ought to find utterance when, on the completion of the century, we seek to pay fit homage to the memory of that great man. I know not how it may be with the many others who, in these days of commemoration, will speak of Lincoln, but to me the dominant feeling, as I approach my subject, is a sense of helplessness, and a sharp realization of the impossibility of doing justice to such an occasion. To attempt here a review of his life would be labor lost. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
