Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Sermon Occasioned by the Death of Abraham Lincoln: Late President of the United States; Preached in the First Reformed Dutch Church, New-Brunswick, N. J., June 1st, 1865 Never perhaps in the whole history of the world did two such extremes of experience occur as that which our nation passed through during the second week of April last. Joy in its wildest delight, and sorrow in its deepest wail of anguish, in most rapid succession rolled over the land. We shall none of us forget the effect produced throughout the loyal North, when early on Monday morning of that eventful week it was announced by swift telegraphic messages that the Capital of the rebellion was not only in our possession, but that now also the great army of the Confederacy under the leadership of its ablest General, had surrendered to the greatest living commander of the world, Lieutenant General Grant. We remember how the daily papers greeted us that morning with the broad capitals Union Victory Peace The surrender of General Lee and his whole army The work of Palm Sunday. This was the climax of glad tidings, and after the four long dark dreary years, years in which the heart staggered under its great burden of wo, we do not wonder that the people almost ran wild with excitement.
