Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Oration Delivered at the River House, Washington Heights on the Fourth of July, 1867
Herrick, a veteran of the Virginia campaigns, whose attentions enlivened the festivities, and were gratefully appreciated. At 2, p.m., Mr. Herrick invited the guests to a sumptuous dinner, worthy the day, and the high reputation of the river house. Under the shade of the grove, in the afternoon, the gentlemen whiled away the hours; and it seemed unanimously conceded that all had enjoyed themselves, and that the celebration was a success.
