Excerpt from Address on the Life and Democracy of John Hatch George: Delivered at Manchester, N. H., Before the Granite State Club, June 27, 1888 Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: I speak to-night in memory of a distinguished citizen of the State, with whom, in his lifetime, most of us were associated, and whose name is familiar to all - Col. John H. George. There is danger on all such occasions that speech may not be bounded by its proper limitations. On the one hand the very generally accepted rule, "Nihil de mortuis nisi bonum" may tempt the speaker to indulge in extravagant, indiscriminate, and consequently unmeaning praise. On the other hand, by closely analyzing and justly reviewing the character and work of a pronounced, positive man, slumbering animosities and forgotten prejudices may be revived. I do not fear falling into the language of unmeaning eulogy, but I do apprehend that the duty which I have undertaken requires me to be specific, to discuss Col. George as we knew him, to consider his political and professional, services and the times in which and the circumstances under which those services were rendered. At his death he had been for many years a trusted leader of the democracy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
