Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorial Addresses on the Life and Character of Orris S. Ferry, (a Senator From Connecticut,): Delivered in the Senate and House of Representatives, February 8, 1876 Mr. President, the Reaper has indeed been busy in the Connecticut congressional field. Buckingham, Ferry, and Starkweather! Within the short space of less than a year these three gifted men have been gathered to their fathers; three names honored by their native State and honoring her. Difficult will it be to fill the places so long and so worthily occupied by them. The death of a valuable and eminent public servant is a loss deeply to be deplored by his immediate constituency, and demands at the hands of his former associates proper and seemly action. Thus impressed, I submit to the Senate the brief remarks which I shall off er on this mournful occasion. No fulsome eulogy will be pronounced by me. It would be alike unworthy of my character and the Spartan simplicity which was one of the leading characteristics of the late Senator Ferry. Orris Sanford Ferry was born in the town of Bethel, Fairfield County, State of Connecticut, on the 15th day of August, 1823.
