IL regarding The defence OF Fort Moultre i'm l776,
one Of the most brilliant exploits of the revou-
tonary war: all unite in eulogising the patriot |
ism and the valor OF those who achieve il; and we |
all agree. that it is crate full to give utterance
to feelings, which spring from the memory OF our
counirys glory, than to dwell upon the topic Of our
countrys discord. Under the influence of these
sentiments, permit me, MIR. President, to offer as
Toast:
Honor TO the Dead and to the Surviving Defen-
ders oil Fort Moultrie, i'll l776-Who covered its
barren site with perennial iaurels.
