Excerpt from Organization and Design, 1870: Proceedings of the Board of Managers
The National Lincoln Monument Association is a voluntary body of citizens, organized, with the national approval, to consummate the admitted wishes of the people of America by erecting a vast Monument in eternal memory of Abraham Lincoln and his chief coadjutors.
N 0 one can deny the fitness and importance of such a Monument. It is essential to the gratitude and sorrow, the dignity and glory of the American people; and the neglect to build it would complete the proof of the oft-repeated charge, the ingratitude of Re publics.
