Excerpt from The President's Death and Its Lessons: A Discourse on Sunday Morning, April 23d, 1865, Before the Second Unitarian Society of Philadelphia

But now we have present a most solemn witness of it; for all that was mortal of our lamented President sleeps with us to-day, and our city is hallowed by the presence of the honored dead.
