Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Autobiography and Reminiscences of Sarah J. Cummins
Being disappointed today in not going out with others to celebrate on this the one hundred and thirty-third anniversary of that great and notable day of victory won which brought freedom to our fathers, their wives and their children forever. I wish you to pause with me for just one moment and reflect on their great struggle, yes, think with deep and reverential awe on the trying scenes through which they passed while pur suing and achieving their precious boon of liberty.
Then lift your voices and shout the shout of victory and freedom; may we fail not to honor those brave soldiers, notable patriots and wise statesmen who made such blessings possible for us, and may we not fail in our duty of teaching our children to appreciate their present happy lot of living in a free land.
