Book excerpt: Excerpt from Address at the Social Festival of the Bar of Worcester County, Massachusetts: Feb; 7, 1856 Hon. Emory Washburn, Dear Sir: - As Chairman of the Committee of Arrangements for the recent Festival of the Bar of the County of Worcester, and in pursuance of a vote of the Bar, I am instructed to tender you "Their sincere thanks, for your valuable, interesting, and eloquent Address, delivered on the occasion, and to request a copy of the same for publication." Very Respectfully Yours, Ira M. Burton Worcester, March 1, 1856. Dear Sir: - In complying with the request contained in your note of the 28th ult., I am performing a pleasant duty, rather than following any personal wish to give publicity to the address. The memorials that a lawyer is ordinarily able to leave of his efforts at the bar, are necessarily brief. The arena upon which his powers are exercised, is removed from public observation, and some of the noblest exertions of the human intellect have been spent in determining questions of private right, to be forgotten with the occasion that called them forth. If, therefore, my brethren have furnished me an occasion to collect some memorials of those who have heretofore filled places at the Bar, and are willing to give them a more permanent form than the entertainment of a festive hour, I do not feel that I have a right to decline the request. I am, very Respectfully, Your Ob't Serv't, Emory Washburn. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
