Excerpt from The Boston Kidnapping: A Discourse to Commemorate the Rendition of Thomas Simms, Delivered on the First Anniversary Thereof, April 12, 1852, Before the Committee of Vigilance, at the Melodeon in Boston When Old and full of memories of earth, their hopes chie y of heaven now, they love to keep the golden wedding of their youthful joy, children and children's chil dren round their venerable board. Thus the individual man seeks to commemorate his private personal joy, and build up a monument of his domestic bliss. So, in the life of a nation, there are proud days, when the people joined itself to some great Idea of Justice, Truth, and Love took some step forward in its destiny, or welcomed to national baptism some institution born of its great idea. The anniversaries Of such events become red-letter days in the almanac Of the nation; days of rejoicing, till that people, old and gray with manifold experience, goes the way Of all the nations, as of all its men. Thus, on the twenty-second of December, all New England thanks God for those poor Pilgrims whose wearied feet first found repose in this great wilderness of woods, not broken then. Each year, their children love to gather on the spot made famous now, and bring to mind the ancient deed; to honor it with speech and song, not without prayers to God. That day there is a springing of New England blood, a beating of New England hearts not only here, but where ever two or three are gathered together in the name of New England, there is the memory of the Pilgrims in the midst of them; and among the prairies of the West, along the rivers of the South, far off where the Pacific waits to bring gold to our shores of rock and sand, even there the annual song of gladness bursts from New England lips.
