Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from In Memoriam, Jefferson Davis: A Tribute of Respect Offered by the Citizens of Charleston, S. C On the morning of Friday, December 6, 1889, the news of the death of the Hon. Jefferson Davis was received in Charleston, and the Major of the city immediately issued the following proclamation: City of Charleston. Executive Department. To the Citizens of Charleston: It is my painful duty to announce to you the death of our great fellow-citizen, Jefferson Davis, Ex-President of the Southern Confederacy. The sad intelligence of his passing away has come with true sorrow to the heart of a people in whose midst he spent his life to whose service, as soldier, statesman and chieftain, he gave all that was in life to give. Closely identified with the brightest hopes and bitterest trials of the South, as a representative of her cause, he was ever faithful and steadfast, even martyrdom, and now in full years, in the reverence and affection of the people of the South, he has passed away in honor, even as in honor long since passed away forever, the cause he led. It becomes us to join with his and our Southern comrades to pay our affectionate tribute to the greatness of his mind and heart, his high character, his devotion and sacrifice for principle, his unsullied and pure life, that will ever be cherished in the memory of the South, and by all good and true men everywhere. His funeral services are announced to be held in the city of New Orleans on Wednesday next, the 11th instant, and on the same day there will be held a memorial service in this city. This day of mourning will be held in Charleston, and all the offices of the municipality will be closed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
