Download or read book Nuts for Future Historians to Crack Esprios Classics written by Horace W. Smith and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-08-04 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For some years I had been engaged in collecting material for a life of my great grandfather, the Rev. William Smith, D. D., Provost of the University of Pennsylvania, and in doing so, I read all the Bibliographical and Historical works which I thought could in any way make mention of him. In no case did I find anything said against his character as a man, until I read Wm. B. Reed's Life of his grandfather, Gen. Joseph Reed. His remarks were uncalled for and ungentlemanly; what they were, amount to nothing, as they were untrue; and therefore not worth repeating. My first idea was to speak of Gen. Joseph Reed in the same manner, though with more truth; but finding the truth had been suppressed, and that to publish all I could wish in regard to Reed, would take up too much room in my work, and be departing from my original design, I therefore, concluded to publish all the historical facts in regard to Reed in a small volume by itself, and to publish such an edition, that it could not be bought up and destroyed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Address on the Life and Character of Gen. Robert E. Lee: Delivered on the 12th of October, 1871, Before the Society of Confederate Soldiers and Sailors, in Maryland Mr. President and Members of the Society: The survivors of the Confederate Army and Navy id Maryland, have done me the honor to invite me to address them on this anniversary, so full of mournful interest to the South, and they have given me the grand theme which has already engaged, and will engage for generations to come, the ablest pens and the most eloquent tongues in Christendom, "The Life and Character Op Robert Lee." Whilst appreciating the compliment that brings me before you, it is with a profound sense of my inability to "rise to the height of this great argument," that I assume the duty your kindness has imposed. Nor would I venture to do so, comrades of the Confederate service, were it not that it seems to me no duty can be more sacred than that which bids every true man of the South, at all times, by all means, in all places, to pay homage to the character, and honor to the memory of our great leader. To myself, whose good fortune it was to follow that illustrious Chief, from the beginning to the close of the marvellous career, which has placed his name by the side of those of the world's greatest captains, - who witnessed his grand magnanimity in the flush of his proudest triumphs, - his sublime serenity in the hour of disaster, - who was sustained by his constant faith in the justice of our cause, encouraged by his kindness, and honored by his friendship, - this call to join in doing honor to his memory, has the sanctity and the tenderness that death, and death alone, can give. Once again, and for the last time, I seem placed on duty in the service of my old Commander, and the voice that summons me here, waking many of the proudest, though saddest, emotions of my heart, comes from the tomb of him, who, though "dead, yet speaketh."
