Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Confederate Soldier: An Address Delivered at the Written Request of 5, 000 Ex-Union Soldiers "Hon. A. M. Waddell., &c., &c., &c. "The undersigned ex-Union Soldiers, a vast majority of whom belong to the Grand Army of the Republic, respectfully request you to deliver your lecture, "The Confederate Soldier," for the benefit of the Veteran Corps of the 47th New York Veteran Volunteers, (Private Miles O´Reilly´s regiment,) in New York City, at an early day. Many of us, knowing that you served with distinction in the army of the late Confederate States, have watched your course in Congress, as the representative of the 3d North Carolina district, during the past seven years, and are aware of the liberal spirit you have exhibited in voting at all times for pensions to Union soldiers; many of us know the pacific, conservative tone of your speeches on public measures likely to re-awaken sectional bitterness - arguments delivered in the interest of a common, united country; and all of us would be happy to meet you face to face. We promise that a generous, soldierly welcome awaits you; for we need scarcely say, that, no matter on which side of the line during the late strife a man served, having served and knowing what it means, he is readiest to listen to one who has shown himself by his public acts, as you have repeatedly done, to have been an honorable, generous for." Extract from Col. Waddell´s Reply. "I accept with unfeigned satisfaction, though with many misgivings as to my ability to discharge the duty imposed upon me worthily. If anything I may say shall tend to strengthen the bonds of union between the people of the North and South, and to renew the spirit which animated our forefathers, my highest hope will be realized."
