Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from New England Addresses: The Puritan in the South and Intellectual Patriotism "The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battle-field and patriot-grave to every living heart and hearth-stone all over this broad land will yet swell the chorus of the Union when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature." - Abraham Lincoln in First Inaugural. "My countrymen, let us know one another, and we will love one another." - L. Q. C. Lamar, in Eulogy on Charles Summer. "This hour little needs the the loyalty which is loyal to one section yet holds the other in enduring suspicion and estrangement. Give us that deep and perfect loyalty which loves and trusts Georgia alike with Massachusetts and which endears with equal and patriotic pride every foot of our soil, every State in our Union." Henry W. Grady, in New England Speech. Full text of an address delivered at the unveiling of a granite boulder, in the town of Wallingford, Conn., to Dr. Lyman Hall, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence for Georgia, on the site of the old patriot´s birth-place, October 19, 1916. Fellow Citizens of New England, Descendants of the Puritan, Ladies and Gentleman: In a common grave, beside the Savannah River, and underneath a single shaft of granite, sleep two of the Georgia signers of the Declaration of Independence. One a native of Connecticut, the other a native of Virginia, both signed the immortal Scroll of Freedom for an adopted State. Comrades in life. Comrades in death. Comrades in eternity. Puritan and Cavalier - their ashes have mingled in a union which time cannot annul; while above them soars a silent witness, hewn from the heart of Georgia´s hills of rock. Bound together by such a tie, ought not Connecticut and Georgia to be forever one; and, brushing aside the little cob-webs of division which have come between them, ought they not to lay bare the eternal cables which are binding them heart to heart and soul to soul, in a deathless union forever?
