Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorial Address on the Life and Character of Willard Hall These are the men who help the race forward in its slow and difficult advance. Our own community was long blessed by the presence of one of these exceptionally pure and beneficent lives, - one among the most eminent and useful of all that class of men; and now that he has been removed from among us, and while the light, which death alone sheds, still illumines his career and throws back upon his character that charm which invests the recollection of a cherished object when lost, we are prompted, by a sentiment, both just to the dead and ennobling to the living, to commemorate his virtues and great services. Doubtless, this tribute of our respect - labor as we may to perfect it - will leave us with a sense of still undischarged obligation for his services, and of unexpressed or ill-expressed reverence and admiration for his virtues. But such as it is, we now offer it: Willard Hall was born in the town of Westford, Middlesex County, and State of Massachusetts, on the 24th of December, 1780. His father, Willis Hall, was born and died in that town; his mother, Mehetabel Poole, was of Hollis, New Hampshire.
