Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Coming Peace: Oration Delivered Before the City Council and Citizens of Boston on the One Hundred and Fifteenth Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1891 Mr. Mayor and Fellow-citizen: - For the one hundred and eighth time the municipality of Boston to-day invites her citizens to join in celebrating the greatest political anniversary that recurs in the calendar of time. Ever since the Fourth of July 1783, when the independence of the United States, declared seven years before, had at last been acknowledged by Great Britain, the day when this nation took its place among the powers of the earth has been commemorated in this city by an unbroken line of municipal orators. The elaborate and scholarly oration of the past, full of classical, literary, and historical allusion, has almost passed away, and is no longer expected; yet it is with diffidence that I enter the excellent fellowship of those who have preceded me in this office, and attempt to add anything to the thoughts which this occasion has suggested.
