Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorial Address on the Life and Character of John Henry Gea, Late a Senator From Iowa: Delivered in the Senate and House of Representatives, Fifty-Sixth Congress, Second Session Rev. W. H. Milburn, D. D., Chaplain to the Senate, offered the following prayer: O Eternal God, rejoicing with gratitude to Thee that so many members of this body are in their places, strong in health and resolve for the responsible and onerous duties of their places, yet as the psalm of our thanksgiving rises, the heavy hand of sorrow is laid upon us as we remember the irreparable loss which this body and the country at large has sustained in the departure from earth of some of our notable members. We recall the venerable figure of a late member of the Senate, who, looking back upon nearly fifty years of public service, had ingratiated himself into the regard, affection, and veneration of his brethren and of a large portion of the people of the country. We recall the form and presence of the junior Senator from Iowa, taken from us and leaving a gap in his State, as well as in this body. And now we stand with unspeakable grief by the new-made grave in the capital of Minnesota, which within the last two days has received all that was mortal of the brilliant, attractive, and serviceable senior Senator from that State. By his genius, his labor, his devotion to the interests not only of his own State but of the whole country, and by his attractive and winsome qualities he drew the love and fixed regard of his colleagues. O Lord, the sense of our sorrow and loss is unspeakable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
