Excerpt from Eulogy on John Pickering, LL. D: President of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Delivered Before the Academy, October 28, 1846 American Academy, recognizes the obligation to trace the path of the great, the virtuous, and the wise, through all their exertions for the benefit of mankind, and to portray their characters as an example to the World. This, doubtless, is the highest purpose of eulogy, and most worthy both of the living and the dead. The memory of great and good men is most truly honored by that which, at the same time, most benefits the world, - the study and practice of their virtues.
