Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Western Reserve Society of the Sons of the American Revolution: Souvenir Commemorative of Lexington and Concord Day, 1775 1893, Cleveland, Ohio "I was born an American, I live an American. I shall die an America." - Daniel Webster. "I am one of those who hold to the safety which flows from honest ancestors and the purity of blood." - Henry Clay. "The citizens of the United States are responsible for the greatest trust ever confided to a political society." - James Madison, 1783. "A people which takes no pride in the noble achievements of remote ancestors will never achieve anything to be remembered with pride by remote descendants." - Lord Macanlay. "These sought their register among those that were reckoned by genealogy, but it was not found; therefore were they, as polluted, put from the priesthood." - Nehemiah, vii, 64. "It would be indeed strange if we should derive pleasure from tracing back to the original construction the great monuments of human design which are scattered over the world, and yet be content to remain in ignorance of own origin." - President Tyler. "The Society of the Sons of the American Revolution enables the man of the North and the man of the South to stand on the same platform. We shall have an electric current of fraternal interest reaching from the St. Lawrence to the Rio Grande." - Admiral D. D. Porter.
