Synopsis
Excerpt from The Old Bell of Independence: Or the Old State House Bell
After General Lafayette himself, the most remarkable objects in the procession were four large open cars, resembling tents, each containing forty veterans of the struggle for independence. NO one could, without emotion, behold these winter-locked patriots, whose eyes, dimmed by age, poured forth tears of joy at their unexpected happiness in once more meeting an Old commander, and joining in the expressions Of gratitude to him.
