Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Tribute to the Memory of Abraham Lincoln: Albion Lodge No; 26, F.& A. M., February 12, 1906 I scarcely suppose that there is one present who has not read his Gettysburg address. It is known wherever the English language is spoken, and so I shall, with your permission, refresh our recollection of this gem of clear, expressive and persuasive eloquence. Although we are told that it was hastily penned on a piece of crumpled paper, and read awkwardly from this poorly written manuscript, it cannot fail to be treasured from generation to generation of American citizens as the only adequate tribute to this martyred President, who carried the sorrows of his country as truly as he bore its burdens in the dark hours of civil war. "Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. "Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war.
