Excerpt from The Life and Character of George Washington As the year roll on, carrying our republic father and farther away from its birth and infancy, we might be led to forget the brave men, who over a century ago, through toil and blood, founded it, were it not that George Washington's Birthday Anniversary comes around regularly upon the 22nd day of February, to remind us of the price paid for the liberty we have so long enjoyed, and the independence and prosperity, Inaugurated by our fathers, led on by the immortal Washington so truly well termed "The Father of our Country." At such a period as this, from year to year, it may be well for us and our children to refresh our memories and recall some of the deeds and the influence of George Washington, in the American Revolution, and his subsequent power in greatly aiding in the construction of our Constitution and founding our republic upon the solid rock of constitutional liberty and justice. The life and career of our first president, presents many characteristics and grand achievements worthy of review.
