Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life of Thomas Dixon: A Memorial I Have been requested to write a memorial of my departed friend, Mr. Thomas Dickson, which shall be especially intended for the use of his family and immediate friends. This work I cheerfully undertake, both out of interest in the living and of love for the dead. Mr. Dickson's long identification with the great schemes of industry in the Lackawanna Valley, and his high character as a citizen, would seem to demand that his life should not be permitted to pass away from the memory of the world without some monument commemorative of his work and his excellence.

It is chiey the issues of an active life, with its accomplished facts which touch other lives in this world, which may be expected to make lasting impressions on succeed ing generations. A man's contemporaries are the most capable and appreciative judges of his personal character; while an after-generation may perhaps be the better judge of his acts, or of the Wisdom of his plans. IT Is the memory OF the man, not the register of his deeds, which is the more precious to his friends. The deeds are to them specially valu able only in so far as they perpetuate the picture of the man himself. It is the husband, the father, and friend, who should be embalmed in the deserted household and circle of affection. His works and activities will be measured by them, and become especially precious only in so far as they bring the man himself back in his earnest and active life to their hearts. It is, indeed, one of the saddest thoughts of our lives here, that we not only pass away from visible and conscious contact with the world, Which is so much to us, but that the very remembrance of us fades away from the world's vision, as the morning cloud before the dawning of the day. The remembrance of many of our acts and plans of life may remain in the world after we leave it, especially if their results continue to affect other lives. Dim and imperfect shadows of ourselves, in conspicuous positions, may now and then ash across the path Of other seekers of position we shall probably be lost to sight, even before the foot-prints we have made, in crossing the stage of action, have become untraceable. Yet it is we ourselves who desire to live in the hearts of all to whom we have tried to be helpful and true. It is what we are, or have tried to be, with all our mis takes and blunders, our imperfections and weak nesses, that we desire should remain in the memory and heart of those we leave behind us.

Thank you for the great communication and customer service. It looked exactly like the description and I'm pleased with the value of it. Thanks for producing a quality product that is almost impossible to find now. Most of all, thanks for making it right when it was wrong.The Writings and Speeches of Grover Cleveland (Classic Reprint) (#135167120478)
- s***s (18)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaSeller was fine, arrived promptly with good packaging and in perfect condition. But I should have asked questions about the book. It is really just a recreation of a collection of pages from old catalogues. I was hoping for more information & history of some of the Chickering models. This was not worth $18 to me. Would have been helpful if the seller had given examples of some pages.
