Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Historical Discourse: Delivered Before the Alumni of Dartmouth College, July 21, 1869; One Hundred Years; After the Founding of That Institution Mr. President and Brothers of the Alumni: A Hundred years, within a few months, have passed since Dartmouth College received its charter from the hands of John Wentworth, the last Royal Governor of New Hampshire. It would have been an unpardonable forgetfulness if we had suffered this century to be completed without some public recognition of the good Providence which has so long sustained the College, and conferred upon it such prosperity; without assembling for mutual congratulations, for a review of the past, and promises for the future. Historically considered, no century of modern times has been more fruitful in great men and great events than that which closes with the present year. None has been so fruitful in discoveries and inventions for bringing the earth under the dominion of man, or in the developing of those principles of civil liberty and self-government which have taken such profound hold of the popular mind, and given to free nations a variety and extent of power altogether unknown before. The third quarter of the last century was a memorable era to England and her colonies. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
