Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Oration Delivered Before the City Council and Citizens of Boston: On the One Hundred and Twentieth Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1896 Mr. Mayor and Fellow Citizens: Faneuil Hall is to-day the witness of the city´s tribute to the immortal scroll which proclaimed the independence of the thirteen colonies and changed the reign of kings and queens for the rule of the common people. Where else in this broad land is more hallowed ground? Where else on this continent, more than in this hall, can the pilgrim, weary and heart-sore, cease his tiresome journey and gather anew the lost fires of patriotic zeal? No place in the United States is richer in historic association and surroundings, and no spot should be held in deeper reverence than the Cradle of Liberty, within whose walls was first whispered the irrevocable word, "Independence." Last year, through the medium of two large conventions, Boston was the Mecca of thousands of visitors from all parts of the country - nay, I might say from all parts of the world. The gates of the city were thrown wide open, our latchstrings were unstrung, and boundless hospitality was lavished on our visiting friends on every hand.
