Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Celebration of the 119th Anniversary of the Birth-Day of Thomas Paine: At Cincinnati, January 29, 1856 The Committee of Arrangements, for the celebration of the 119th anniversary of the Birth-day of Thomas Paine, the Author-Hero of the Revolution, congratulate the liberal and enlightened portion of their fellow-citizens on the success which has attended this effort to do justice to a great man´s memory. The Invitation of the Committee to the Political and Religious friends of Thomas Paine, to join in celebrating his Birth-day, met with a noble response. We were cheered by harmonious feelings and liberal contributions. Men of liberal sentiments, though widely separated in their opinions on political, social, and religious questions, joined heartily in a great ovation to the memory of an Honest Man, who, fearlessly and conscienciously did a noble work for Humanity. The result was, one of the largest and most enthusiastic celebrations ever known in our city. It was ushered in with the firing of artillery, from the hills which overlook Cincinnati, and from the neighboring city of Newport, on the Kentucky bank of the Ohio river. The meeting, which enjoyed and applauded the Oration, Addresses, and Music, was, probably, the largest that ever assembled on such an occasion.
