Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Orations and Occasional Discourses Gentlemen, "Hæc olim meminisse juvabit!" was the motto of my class on the day we left the shades of Academic life for the ruder world. How true the prophecy has been, those well know, who look back, after a lapse of years, upon such peaceful scenes. The remembrance is sweet and sad, as the exile´s in a sultry land of the springs which slaked his youthful thirst, but whose freshness he may never taste again. Indeed, but for the sympathy which such associations inspire, I should not have dared to address you with the brief preparation, which a recent return, after a long absence from many pressing duties, has permitted me to make. I rely upon a correspondent good feeling for your kind acceptance of my efforts to serve you. "Nearly one hundred of us," says the letter of your committee, "are about to bid a final farewell to our beloved Alma Mater, and hope to listen to your friendly appeals and kind admonitions."
