Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Eulogy on the Life and Character of John Quincy Adams: Delivered at the Request of the Legislature of Massachusetts, in Faneuil Hall, April 15, 1848
Falling, as he has done, at a period of high politi cal excitement, and entertaining and expressing, as he ever did, opinions the most decided in the boldest and most uncompromising manner, he has yet been mourned, as an Object of respect and veneration, by good men and patriots of every party name. Leaders, that rarely met him or each other but in opposition, unite in doing honor to his memory, and have walked side by side in the funeral train.
