Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Two Great Wars of America: An Oration Delivered in Newbern, North Carolina, Before the Twenty-Fifth Regiment, Massachusetts Volunteers, July 4, 1862
We are induced by a desire to refer again to the principles therein taught - to its elevated tone and pure patriotism - to the peculiarities of our surroundings while sustaining by force of arms the doctrines Of the Decla ration among those who, bound equally with us in solemn compact, are with traitorous hands striving to despoil the heritage bequeathed by our fathers, and build upon its ruins a government for personal aggrandizement, and to perpetuate injustice and oppression; - in behalf of ourselves and friends, to request a copy of the Address for publication.
