Excerpt from Address Delivered in the First Parish Church in Bolton July 4th, 1876
Fellow citizens - The Tree of Liberty under which we gratefully gather, whose leaves are for the healing of the nation, has many roots and rootlets. Here among these hills of Bolton, one rootlet fastened itself in the soil, to draw from it sap and sustenance for the parent trunk. In a fertile earth, beneath a kindly sky, the little root did its necessary helpful work. Sustained by it and by a thousand like it, the tree grew and flourished. We are fortunate in having among us a fellow-citizen, whom your committee unanimously chose to address you today, as the fittest person to describe the course of life through which this Bolton rootlet of the American Tree of Liberty has passed.
