Excerpt from George Washington and Other American Addresses The following Addresses were given in February and March, 1901, at various Societies and Universi ties of the United States. The occasion of my Visit was an invitation with which I was honoured by the Union League Club of Chicago to deliver the public Address in the Auditorium of that city, on the annual commemoration of the birthday of George Washing ton. My thanks are due to the American Ambas sador in London, who transmitted to me from his friends there this and similar invitations from various Universities, and who adds to his kindness by per mitting me to inscribe his name on this volume. The first two addresses were in substance published in the annual Report of the celebration by the Union League Club of Chicago. The Lecture on the Writ ings of King Alfred was published separately in May last. The other Addresses have not previously been printed.

Excerpt from The American Spirit: A Patriotic Address You have asked me to speak to you again.

Excerpt from Addresses More than one hundred years have passed since the death of Washington, and he is today the central figure in American history. The judgment of his contemporaries has been approved by subsequent generations, and his birthday is the rallying point of freedom in every land. He typifies honesty, courage, character, the love of country and the love of liberty, as does no other soldier-statesman of which the world has a record; and it was because of these qualities that the great Irish orator, Charles Philipps, grandly said of him - and I will make his words the text of my address tonight - "No country can claim him; no people can appropriate him. The boon of Providence to the human race, his fame is eternity and his residence creation." We honor his memory; we recount his virtues, which we would fain emulate; we recall the principles which guided his public life, not idly, but in order that they may exert their proper influence upon the destinies of the Republic. Hence, our meeting this evening is not for eulogy alone. It is for patriotic profit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
