Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Wendell Phillips a Centennial Oration: Delivered at Park Street Church, Boston, November 28, 1911 The Centenary of the Birth of Wendell Phillips was impressively celebrated by a public meeting at Park Street Church, Boston, on the evening of November 28, 1911, under the auspices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Moorfield Storey, Esq., President of the Association, occupied the chair and introduced the orator of the occasion. Judge Stafford, of Washington, District of Columbia, a namesake of Mr. Phillips, and peculiarly qualified by inheritance, training, and sympathy to do justice to his subject. His address, delivered with rare eloquence and charm, made a profound impression on his audience, and was felt to be so noble and adequate a tribute to the great reformer that there has been an urgent request for its publication. The generosity of friends has made this possible, and will be gratefully appreciated by all to whom the opportunity of reading the oration is thus afforded. It has seemed fitting, in this connection, to reprint from the Atlantic Monthly, in which it first appeared more than twenty years ago, Judge Stafford´s fine poem on Wendell Phillips, which has an equal claim to preservation with his masterly oration. To Judge Stafford himself the Association is deeply indebted for his generously rendered service on this occasion, and for his steadfast sympathy and support in the work to which it is dedicated.
