1p., 4to, Boston, State House, The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, 29th January 1920, "Your note brings to my recollection that I wrote a prize essay on 'The Principles Fought for in the American Revolution' at commencement time in 1895 and was fortunate enough to have it adjudged to be the best essay on that subject in any of the American colleges in that year. I feel sure that I pointed out that there were adherents to the Crown in America and adherents to the revolutionary cause in Great Britain. I feel sure that the experience of 1776 laid the foundation of your Reform Bill. But the question of past differences is not material. The question which is essential is of the present common determination to support that form of civilization which is characteristic of your Empire and our Republic", folds.
