Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorial Address on the Life and Character of William McKinley: Delivered at Hoople, N. D., September 19th, 1901 When the news was flashed over the country that President McKinley was dead, probably none of our western communities responded to the universal sorrow with more promptness and sincere devotion than did the people of the little village of Hoople, situated amid beautiful surroundings of timber and prairie in the heart of the Red River Valley. Their public hall was artistically decorated with flowers and drapery and the various insignia of mourning. On the day appointed for the funeral appropriate and touching exercises were held, and the whole population turned out to give expression to their grief. The author of the following pages is one of the younger members of the bar in his judicial district, and was called upon to deliver an address suitable to the sad and memorable occasion; and the production of this little book is the result of his efforts to pronounce appropriate eulogy upon the life and character of our noble and illustrious president, and in response to the repeated and urgent requests of his friends for its publication.
