Mr.. Warwick said in part:
"'The lesson that is taught us by the
cordial reception which has been given
the Liberty Bell is that we are a united

that our loyalty is not confined within
state lines but is as broad as the nation;
that there are no limits to our patriotism
save the borders of the republic.

before he could coltinuc. Then he
dwelt at some length upon the old-timc
cordial relation between Pennsylvania

we were TO each others existence ana
