Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorial Day Oration of William H. Lambert: National Cemetery, Arlington Va;, May 30, 1883 To commemorate the great deliverance which the Lord wrought for His chosen people, He ordained a ceremonial to be observed by all their generations forever. Lest the memorial should deteriorate into a meaningless form, He commanded the father to shew the son, saying, "This is done because of that which the Lord did unto me when I came forth out of Egypt." We are to-day assembled to commemorate our Nations dead, and though neither antiquity nor divine command hallows our ceremonial, surely when our sons ask, "What mean ye by this service?" we may say, this is done because the strong hand of the Lord wrought for our people a mighty deliverance. The consequences of the War of the Rebellion so far exceeded the purposes and the hopes which we cherished at its outbreak, that in these later years we are disposed to consider its results as the object for which the war was undertaken.
