Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Dedication of the Sullivan Monument at Durham, New Hampshire: Thursday, September 27, 1894 Like a monument reared upon a sure foundation, the American Republic rests securely upon the works and creation of the brilliant soldiers and sagacious statesmen of the Revolution. The story of their lives is eternal. Literature, poesy, and sculpture, expressing the deeper feelings of the people, are forever engaged in earnest rivalry in inscribing the living sentiment of succeeding generations. The founders of the state of New Hampshire were conspicuous men of eventful times. Sullivan and Langdon, Weare and Bartlett, Thornton and Whipple, Cilley and Stark, Dearborn and Scammell, Thompson and Folsom, James Reed and George Reid, Livermore and Peabody, Hale and Bellows, the Gilmans, the Wentworths, and the Hobarts, were men of resources, and bold and sagacious leaders in the field and in the halls of legislation. All were men of unsullied character and of unusual ability. Of these worthies, each was a patriot, and all surrendered their energies and their fortunes to the cause of their country. Among them, disciplined by like experience and animated by a common impulse, many similitudes of mind and habit of thought are easily discernible.
