Book excerpt: Excerpt from Address to the Pennsylvania Volunteers Returned From Mexico, Delivered July 24, 1848, at Philadelphia Yes, my brothers, they welcome your return, not in cold words or formal salutations, but from the deep recesses of their hearts; not with the simple, cheerful welcome, extended to the friend from a distant journey, but with the grave, and deep, and solemn welcome, which it becomes them to bestow upon men rescued and restored to them from the desolations of war; upon men saved by the bounty of Providence from that death by the bullet, by the sword, by disease, which during every day of your absence, you facedfor your country's sake, and which subdued and laid in the soldier's grave so many of your companions, who with you went forth from among us, full of life, and hope, and bold resolve.
