Excerpt from Oration by Frederick Douglass: Delivered on the Occasion of the Unveiling of the Freedmen's Monument in Memory of Abraham Lincoln, in Lincoln Park, Washington, D. C., April 14th, 1876, With an Appendix Friends and Fellow-Citizens: I warmly congratulate you upon the highly interesting object which has caused you to assemble in such numbers and spirit as you have to-day. This occasion is in some respects remarkable. Wise and thoughtful men of our race, who shall come after us, and study the lesson of our history in the United States; who shall survey the long and dreary spaces over which we have travelled; who shall count the links in the great chain of events by which we have reached our present position, will make a note of this occasion; they will think of it and speak of it with a sense of manly pride and complacency. I congratulate you. also, upon the very favorable circumstances in which we meet to-day. They are high, inspiring, and uncommon. They lend grace glory, and significance to the object for which we have met. Nowhere else in this great country, with its uncounted towns and cities, unlimited wealth, and immeasurable territory extending from sea to sea, could conditions be found more favorable to the success of this occasion than here. We stand to-day at the national centre to perform something like a national act - an act which is to go into history; and we are here where every pulsation of the national heart can be heard, felt, and reciprocated A thousand wires, fed with thought and winged with lightning, put us in instantaneous communication with the loyal and true men all over this country.
