Excerpt from Lang Syne or the Wards of Mount Vernon: A Tale of the Revolutionary EraWhen a people whose watchword is Progress, consent to stand still, and pausing in their career, not only look backward, but devote their time and their energies to enthusiastic commemoration of the deeds of the past, it is a speaking tribute to the hold which that past has upon their affections, and to the power which it may yet wield in moulding the char acter of their future. Such an exhibition of patriotism, we are again looking forward to on April 30th, 1889, as was given by the people of these United States the memorable year which marked the completion of our republic's first century of existence.What an electric thrill that was which shot through the length and breadth of this mighty land, when the solemn stroke of the midnight bell, tolling the requiem of 1875, changed its tone into one of glad rejoicing, as it rang forth the advent of the infant year, which ushered in the second century of our existence as a nation.That was a typical scene which was enacted, at the same hour, in the heart of the greatest thoroughfare of the greatest city in America, when, from the lofty spire of old Trinity Church, chimed forth a glad welcome to that significant New Year, and thousands of human tongues gave back harmonious response, as they thundered forth the most familiar but sublimest of doxologies to the immortal melody of Old Hundred. Typical was this scene of the feelings cherished by a whole people although not everybody had the opportunity of giving such dramatic expression to the emotions of thankfulness welling up within his soul.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
