Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sir Walter Raleigh an Address An Address Delivered at Old Fort Raleigh on Roanoke Island, North Carolina, at the Celebration of Virginia Dare Day, August 19, 1913. By Marshall DeLancey Haywood, Member Roanoke Colony Memorial Association, General Historian of the Sons of the Revolution, Historian of the Masonic Grand Lodge of North Carolina, Historiographer of the Diocese of North Carolina, etc. My Friends and Fellow-Countrymen: To be invited to appear before this company today, amid such inspiring surroundings, is an honor which might well natter the pride of any true American, and I value it most highly. For many years I have been a member of the Roanoke Colony Memorial Association, but never until last night was it my privilege to set foot upon Roanoke Island. The purchase and reclamation of the site on which stand the remains of this old fortress were due to the efforts of the late Professor Edward Graham Daves, a native North Carolinian residing in the city of Baltimore. This scholarly gentleman associated with himself a number of patriotic persons who were interested in historical and antiquarian work, and soon raised funds sufficient for the purchase of Fort Raleigh. During the Christmas holidays of 1893, I first had the pleasure of forming the acquaintance of Professor Daves when he came to my home town and delivered an interesting and instructive lecture on Roanoke Island and the daring Englishmen who first discovered and colonized it.
