Proceedings at the Centennial Celebration of the Battle of Lexington, April 19, 1875 (Classic Reprint) by Mass Lexington PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from Proceedings at the Centennial Celebration of the Battle of Lexington, April 19, 1875 The Committee chosen to arrange and publish the speeches, correspondence, and other proceedings connected with the recent celebration at Lexington, have the honor to present the result of their labors in the following pages. We congratulate ourselves and our associates on being able to furnish so full a record of an occasion which we believe reflects honor upon the town, and which seems to have awakened a generous spirit of patriotism throughout the country. Knowing that it was the desire of the town to make the celebration national in its character, and worthy of the grand inheritance we have received from our Revolutionary fathers, the Committee issued their invitations to all branches of the General and State Government, to public institutions, and important societies, to the governors of all the States, and to distinguished individuals in all parts of the country. Having no historical name to acquire, and being content with the honor long since accorded her, Lexington felt that she ought to use the advantages of her position by harmonizing public feeling, and reviving, so far as possible, the noble sentiments that inspired the hearts of our ancestors, and nerved them to heroic deeds in the early days of the Republic. Actuated by these feelings, our principal speakers were selected as representative men of eminent ability, whose utterances on this historic ground would be widely recognized as expressing the broad and just views of loyal Americans of all parties and of every section.
