Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Rufus Putnam, Founder and Father of Ohio: An Address by by George F. Hoar, on the Occasion of Placing a Tablet to the Memory of Rufus Putnam, Upon His Dwelling-House in Rutland, 17 September, A. D. 1898 This Society does well to mark with visible and enduring tablets the spots where great deeds have been performed or great men have been born or dwelt. Whatever Massachusetts has done, whatever she is doing, whatever she is to accomplish hereafter, is largely owing to the fact that she has kept unbroken the electric current flowing from soul to soul forever and forever, as it was generated now nearly three hundred years ago at Plymouth. Her generations have taken hold of hands. The men of Plymouth Rock and of Salem, the men who cleared the forest, the heroes of the Indian and the old French waiS, the men who imprisoned Andros, the men who fought the Revolution, the men who humbled the power of France at Louisburg and the power of Spain at Martinique and Havana, the men who won our independence and builded our Constitution, the sailors of the great sea fights of the war of 1812, the soldiers who saved the Union, and the men who went with Hobson on the Merrimac, or fought with Dewey at Manila, or under Sampson or before the trenches at Santiago, have been of one temper from the beginning the old Massachusetts spirit, which we hope may endure and abide until time shall be no more.
