Synopsis

Excerpt from Addresses Delivered at the Lincoln Dinners of the Republican Club of the City of New York: In Response to the Toast Abraham Lincoln, 1887-1909 On the 12th day of February, 1887, The Republican Club of the City of New York held its first banquet to commemorate the birth of Abraham Lincoln, and on each succeeding year the event has been fittingly observed. The function is now one of the largest of its kind held in the United States and has assumed proportions of National significance. The orations here published, in response to the toast of "Abraham Lincoln," were delivered by men distinguished for their eloquence, prominent in our National life and many of whom were personally acquainted with Lincoln. Their speeches, therefore, add valuable material and new and important facts to Lincoln literature. In the Appendix will be found speeches delivered at the Lincoln Dinners by former Presidents of the United States - Harrison, McKinley and Roosevelt - and by Hon. Hannibal Hamlin, Lincoln's Vice-President. This volume is published in the hope that the lessons of Lincoln's life, so eloquently portrayed in its pages, may prove an inspiration to the readers, and add to the love, respect and admiration that the world has always manifested for the far-seeing, lovable spirit of our martyred President, Abraham Lincoln.
