Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life and Speeches of Hamilton Ward, 1829-1898 For the better part of three years the preparation of my father´s biography has occupied my spare moments and I feel myself viewing its completion with regret because the task has been a pleasant companion from whom I am loath to part. Much pleasanter, indeed, would it have been could we have ransacked attic and scrap-book, newspaper file and public document together in this work as I had hoped; then the dry and disjointed array of facts which I have gathered would have glowed with his vigor, sparkled with his humor and told a story which would have described more correctly his active and eventful life. Nevertheless, as that was not to be, I have endeavored to set down from such scattered and in many cases unsatisfactory sources as I could command the following narrative which is written, not for wide publicity or in response to any public demand, but for the family and for the few old and dear friends who would take pleasure in recalling, through these pages, once familiar occurences. And above all else it is written for the purpose of preserving in permanent form the record of a life whose every event and circumstance I love to remember. He was devoted to his home and village and much local history has crept in because it was so closely associated with him.
