Synopsis
Excerpt from Lessons From Our North Carolina Records: An Address Read Before the Faculty and Students of Trinity College, November 27, 1888
From my present helpless condition one would scarcely think so, but the fact is that during the late war I had the honor to command a regi ment in Lee's army, and one of my companies, Company G, was com posed at its organization almost entirely of Trinity men, boys I might almost say, very many of them were; and the remembrance of that company has always made a warm spot in my heart for Trinity. And well does its memory deserve to be cherished, for your college register as well as its own roster bears mournful attest how faithful it was, even unto death. Therefore, when Trinity called, it was not in me to refuse, to make the effort, at least, to come. And then too a lesson I learned from old Company G, was that every North Carolinian must go promptly and cheerfully to the front whenever called upon for service in behalf of North Carolina, and so, Mr. President and gentlemen, I am here to-day.

Lessons From Our North Carolina Records (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into North Carolina's crucial historical juncture in 1790, 99 years after the state's formation. It examines the state's reluctance to align itself with any government without first scrutinizing its constitution. Furthermore, the book sheds light on North Carolina's robust defense of its constitutional rights against British rule in the years leading up to the American Revolution. The author demonstrates that North Carolinians, hardened from decades of frontier life and conflicts with indigenous tribes, were well-prepared for the Revolution. Their deep understanding of the necessity for self-governance and their unwavering commitment to a written constitution laid the groundwork for their resolute opposition to British tyranny. This book offers valuable insights into the development of American constitutionalism and the pivotal role played by North Carolina in shaping the nation's foundational principles. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331296416_0
