Excerpt from An Address Delivered Before the Alumni Association of Rutgers College, New Brunswick, New Jersey, at Its 104th Anniversary, June 16th, 1874 Dear Sun - Yours of the loth inst. Was duly received. Allow me to thank you for your kind expression of interest in reference to my ad dress before our Alumni. It was not intended for ears other than our own, and will, I fear, suffer greatly in general estimation when set in dull, cold type. This responsibility, however, you have assumed and made a compliance with your request, not only possible but imperative. Fully appreciating the distinguished consideration of yourself and those whom you represent, I remain. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
