Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Addresses and Proceedings at the Celebration of the One Hundredth Anniversary of the Founding of the American Whig Society: Of the College of New Jersey, Princeton, N. J., June 29th, 1869 Fathers and Brethren of the American Whig Society: - Your partiality has assigned to me the pleasing duty of gathering from the past, not the floating traditions that cluster around a venerable institution, but the well authenticated facts known to all who love our Society, or those which may have been hidden in remote corners and thus escaped the attention of men whom the absorbing cares of life render impatient of painful investigation. With unaffected diffidence I say that I wish that it had been assigned to abler hands. I approach the duty, however, with a reverence that increased as the work advanced, and with an affection for the Whig Society that has been augmented with each passing day. O friends, and ye fair loving gentle folk, Would I could better tell a tale to-day; But hark to this. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
