Excerpt from Address Delivered Before the American Whig and Cliosophic Societies of the College of New Jersey, Sept: 26, 1843 It seems but as yesterday, that a little com pany of adventurers like yourselves stood here: having freighted for the voyage of life they parted; each in his own way drifting out into the great deep. From this spot anxious eyes have followed them, struggling far and wide upon its bosom. Some there are who have gone down, to rise no more. Others, again, are far away, a speck just seen upon the horizon's verge. A few remain in full view, yet nobly breasting the wave. After the lapse of a few years, a friendly signal has recalled one of their number to commune with you. He and his associates today, are but the type of you and your associates to-morrow. I come from them to bid you, God speed! To give you a welcome - a hearty welcome to the great struggle of life.
