Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Memorial Address on the Life and Character of Abraham Lincoln: Delivered at Concord, New Hampshire, June 1, 1865, at the Request of the State Authorities
How painful and yet how beautiful are those simple words of leave-taking. His coming martyrdom seems to have cast its shadow upon his spirit; but his appointed work was more than life, and he gave himself to it without reservation. Time, thought, labor, and life itself, all were consecrated to the salvation of his country.
