Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Address by Andrew Carnegie at the Unveiling of a Statue to Burns: Erected by the Citizens of Montrose, 1912
We are met to-day to testify that the immortal Bard still lives in our memory, that his fame increases with time - that his place in the world as in our hearts strengthens with the years - and that the debt we owe him is indeed unpayable. No man who ever lived has so many memorial statues in so many lands, and yet we meet to-day in Montrose to dedicate still another.
