Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Address Delivered Before the Graduating Class of the Law Department of Hamilton College: July 16, 1856 Young Gentlemen: - Nearly half a century ago, a young man, born on the western border of Massachusetts, and just graduated from one of her colleges, made his way, poor and unprotected, to one of the pleasant villages nearest this ancient seat of learning. What were his emotions on leaving the dear home of his childhood, and what his plans and purposes as he skirted that beautiful stream, which "From its western source, Where silently and calm it flows, To where it takes a torrent´s force, And dashes down the dark Cohoes," we may more than conjecture, from the completed history of his life, and of his death. His native hills and valleys were endeared to him by the tenderest recollections. His parents, his sisters, were names interwoven with every emotion of his heart, and in separating himself from them many bitter tears bedewed the sad parting. He was called, however, to do his duty in the battle of life, and chose this then comparatively remote region, as the scene of his labors, and it might be of his triumphs.
