Union Address

Famous quotes containing the words union and/or address:

    These semi-traitors [Union generals who were not hostile to slavery] must be watched.—Let us be careful who become army leaders in the reorganized army at the end of this Rebellion. The man who thinks that the perpetuity of slavery is essential to the existence of the Union, is unfit to be trusted. The deadliest enemy the Union has is slavery—in fact, its only enemy.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Give a boy address and accomplishments and you give him the mastery of palaces and fortunes where he goes.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
