Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Annual Address Delivered at the Twenty-Third Reunion of the Society of the Army of the Cumberland, Held at Chickamauga, Georgia, September 14 and 15, 1892 Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen, Comrades: We gray-beards of the Army of the Cumberland have met again on ground made familiar to us, both by the horrors and the glories of war, to find that the nation has risen to a due appreciation of its history and significance, and, with the consent of the states in which the fields of Chickamauga and Chattanooga lie, has raised its flag of eminent domain over them, as spots pre-eminently deserving national care and preservation. A generation has passed since we stood here, shoulder to shoulder, doing battle for that Union and nationality which have come, and come to stay forever. It is difficult to recognize the boys of ´61 in the silver hairs and changed forms and features which the afternoon of life for all of us, and its very evening for many, have stamped upon these survivors of 1892; but, in spite of these, our hearts and hands and greetings are still those of the very heyday of youth - are as strong, as earnest, and as true as when we were the boys in blue of thirty years ago. Aged men of the Army of the Cumberland - heroes of the Army of the Cumberland - I salute you, one and all.
