Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Address Before the Grafton and Coös Counties Bar Association at the Meeting Held at Woodsville: For the Presentation of Memories of Harry Bingham, December 11, 1900 Mr. President: It was Mr. Bingham´s fortune to work out his career in an environment that set bounds to his reputation in no wise corresponding with his talents. He was the product of the intellectual and moral development of the historic Connecticut stock, which had occupied the Connecticut river valley and had given character to a succession of generations on that fertile and prosperous domain. Out of this same region Salmon P. Chase and Thaddeus Stevens strode to the highest seats of power and prestige. Had it been fated that Harry Bingham should go out into a wider sphere of action - into a more central arena - as they did, he would have stood with them, by universal consent, as well as in fact, a peer among the ablest lawyers and the most potential statesmen of his time. He was called to the bar in 1846 with a character well settled in the essential principles which dominated his after life. He kept high ideals always in view for his own guidance. His character was distinguished by a devout and patriotic mentality. His integrity was rock-ribbed. The political doctrines of his fathers were ingrained in him. His religious nature was congenital. His devotion to fundamental principles related to social order and human conduct was a conspicuous feature of his stalwart manhood. He was at the same time an intensely practical man. He wasted no time or effort in pursuit of the unattainable. He was not unconscious of his own intellectual and moral strength - his ability to grapple with any of the concerns of government, with any of the questions of the learned in science and philosophy, and with any of the problems of life.
