robert h sayre your lamented trustee then chief en gineer of the lehigh valley rail road and robert packer eldest son of the president of the road judge asa packer on landing we heard that lincoln was elected — that all business was at a stand still — that seven southern states were about to secede from the union and what disturbed my friends most that lehigh valley railroad stock had dropped to 30 per share they little dreaming that the impending war would make that railroad a source of great pro fit and that that profit would by 1866 6 years later through the munificence of its president be used to found a seat of learning called lehigh university my companion , another heidel berg student was bearer of letters from mr huntington then the paris correspondent of the new york tribune and i went with him to the tribune office where we de livered them to mr charles a dana then mr greely's assistant editor he took a gloomy view of the future was sure there would be an insurrection but doubted mr lincoln's ability to put it down he thought him a fine orator and continued on second page that when in the distant future some man some faction some interest should setup the doctrine that none but rich men or none but white men or none but anglo saxon wiiite men were entitled to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness their posterity might look up again to the declaration of independence and take courage to renew the battle which their fathers began so that truth and justice and all the humane and christian virtues might not be ex tinguished from the land so that no man should hereafter dare to limit and circumscibe the great principles on which the temple of liberty was being built this morning general doster gave a most valuable discourse at the chapel upon lincoln to a large audience of students and friends of the university he said in part : — ladies and gentlemen we have met to celebrate the one hundredth anniversary of the birth of our sixteenth president abra ham lincoln of illinois we have celebrated his birthday anniversary heretofore not at the invitation of the national government or of all the states but of fourteen states out of forty-six which have made the day a legal holiday seven of the southern states have made a legal holiday of hme 3 the birth day of jefferson davis so that in the legislatures at least there is no unanimity in the distrib^ilop of glory and the majority is silent we all know however that in the north during the forty-four years which have elapsed since the war ended and he died at the age of fifty-six the name of lincoln has grown in popular esteem — that he is conceded to have been the apostle of freedom the conqueror over great odds in a civil war the eman cipator of slaves and the blessed martyr standing according to the vote taken in 1900 in the hall of fame of new york university next to washington as second father of his country — two vener able names surpassing in bright ness all the twenty-six who have held the office of president it is also known that his birth was humble his race shiftless his education limited and self-acquired his reputation as a lawyer local his career in congress creditable but without distinction and that he rose from a comparatively obscure western attorney to sup reme eminence at home and aboard in about seven years between 1858 and 1865 in speaking of the lincoln - douglas debate he said douglas planted himself squarely on the constitution and on the dred scott decision of the supreme court of the united states which upheld the fugitive slave law recently delivered lincoln planted him self on the constitution the biil of rights and the declaration of independence i quote one para graph from lincoln's speech of august 17 1858 speaking of the framers of the declaration he said wise statesmen as they were they knew the tendency of posterity to breed tyrants and so they establish ed these great self-evident truths n j hiss 90 has recently
