Lafayette In Massachusetts In 1824 – August 31 Marblehead

Lafayette In Massachusetts In 1824 – August 31 Marblehead

Lafayette! like thy friend and associate Washington, thou hast immortalized the name not o the tombs of slaughtered millions nor on the ruins of mournful principalities, kingdoms and empires – but on the brilliant pages of illustrious Philanthropists, on the durable annals of the great, the good, the divine-like benefactors of man.

Your return to this Country, at this time, we consider providential, and your life having been thus prolonged, we consider to be for some wise and good purpose, by him who overrules the destinies of men.

You are among the surviving Patriots of the Revolution, who remain to this day as monuments of the same – as such, among other traits of character we receive you – above all, as the friend of Man.

Lafayette In Massachusetts In 1824 – August 31 Lynn

Although your present appearance among us, like the transit of a brilliant and beneficent planet, commissioned to proclaim good will to man, in its rapid career among innumerable worlds, is short and fleeting, the emanations of the bright and joyous light which is shed around you will continue with us to guide our steps, and cheer our hearts to the latest moment of our existence.

Over and over again courts have said that there is nothing sinister in so arranging one’s affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible. Everybody does so, rich or poor; and all do right, for nobody owes any public duty to pay more than the law demands: taxes are enforced exactions, not voluntary contributions. To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
