Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Washington Centennial Souvenir This little garland of graceful and enthusiastic utterances of eminent personages from all nationalities, in honor of the Founder of the Republic. The impulse that prompted the garnering into a votive wreath, these beautiful tributes, it is believed, must be in unison with the universal sentiment of the time, and therefore, will scarcely fail to be greeted with general acceptation. While the history of our nation may justly be said to be without a parallel, - alike as to the wonderful development of its numbers, and its wide-spread domain, - so the lustre of the name of Washington, as a central sun amid the constellations of the world's great heroes, shines with superior and increasing splendor.
