Delaware State Capitol

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or capitol:

—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

“A woman with her two children was captured on the steps of the capitol building, whither she had fled for protection, and this, too, while the stars and stripes floated over it.”
