Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lessons for Our Times From the Life of Washington: An Address Delivered Before the Boston Young Men's Christian Union, on the Evening of February 22, 1874 That the wise and timely counsel contained in the following address might receive a wider hearing than could be obtained by a single delivery, the Board of Government of the Boston Young Men's Christian Union requested a copy for publication, believing that the example of one like Washington, who in private life was irreproachable, and through a long public career sought only the country's welfare, being freshly brought to mind, might induce many not only to emulate his example, but, at a time when corruption threatens the welfare of cities, states, and the nation itself, might lead them to measure public men by the lofty standard which his life presents.
