Book Description

Excerpt from Randolph Honor There was an evening that we stood beneath these very trees when these young leaves were in bud, and my Fa dette's eyes brightened and her cheek flushed, while, rais ing her hand defiantly, she cried, _ Shame upon the tramplers out of our forefathers' foot-prints on the sands of time Honor to those who tread once again and deeper in those foot-prints, until they stand upon the underlying rock.' Does She think I then proclaimed duties for others, from Which I myself shrink back? Or would let the true Ran dolph honor go, to hold fast its emblem, these old walls and acres? Heretofore business arrangements have oom pelled me to delay in Maryland, but I am now free to follow my first impulse, to join our army in Virginia. Will you not bid me God-speed, and choose me your champion? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
