Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Address Delivered Before the Members of the Schools, and the Citizens of Quincy: July 4, 1856 My Young Friends: Late as was the notice of this celebration, I felt as if I could not decline to take the part in it assigned to me, if I might hope by accepting, to be of any service to you, in whose progress through the period of your education I have taken a constant interest. This is a day set apart for instruction in a department not embraced in the ordinary course of the schools. It is the day for forming, for nerving, for purifying the patriotic heart both of young and old. Fortunate indeed is it for us in America that we have an anniversary, to which, whether in seasons of prosperity, or of adversity, of security, or of alarm, we can have recourse, for the purpose of invigorating our spirits with the remembrance of trials happily passed by others, and of clearing our perception of the modes by which we may go with safety through those that are in store for us. Here we live over again the contests of a heroic age, and learn from the various examples that it furnishes, bad as well as good, how best to bear ourselves in our own.
