Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Jefferson Davis, and His Complicity in the Assassination of Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States: And Where the Traitor Shall Be Tried for Treason "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." These words were referred to in emphatic terms by Mr. Lincoln, then President elect, on Washington´s birthday, the 22d of February, 1861, when hoisting the American flag high over Independence Hall. "But," said he, "if this country cannot be saved upon that principle it will be truly awful. But if this country cannot be saved without giving up this principle, I Was about to say, would rather be assassinated on this spot than surrender it" And for sustaining and carrying out this noble and sublime principle he was assassinated in the capital of his native land b- an organized conspiracy of ruffians and traitors hired by Jefferson Davis and his associates in treason and murder. To every man of common sense the evidence is overwhelming, and the crime is in keeping with the cold, cruel, and vindictive temper of the arch rebel who was a careful student of Machiavelli and of the policy of his hero, Caesar Borgia.
