Excerpt from Oration Delivered Before the City Council and Citizens of Boston on the One Hundred and Thirteenth Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1889 A long line of eloquent citizens has performed this task of recognition, and there seems to be no sentiment Of enthusiasm left unexpressed, nor incident of interest unmentioned.

As the third and last of the primal and inseparable rights Of men, it declared pursuit of happiness to be the end Of the institution Of government. This complete and original statement Of final governmental concern gives to this day its significance and abiding force. We are Americans in fact as well as by title, just so far as we have faith in the self-evident truths. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
