Excerpt from The Life and Public Services of Richard Yates, the War Governor of Illinois: A Lecture DeliveredAs a native of the State of Illinois, I am proud of her history. I delight to Speak of the character and valorous deeds of her distinguished citizens, and to note her material, political and intellectual progress. This commonwealth has given more than its share of patriotism and greatness to the Republic. It pos sesses the population, wealth and material power of an empire, and it has within itself the undeveloped capacity of a great na tion. Its rapid growth has no parallel in any of the States of the Union, and no man can set bounds to its future greatness.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
