. The Century book of famous Americans : the story of a young people's pilgrimage to historic homes . seeming each others foe,Twin flowers upon a single stalk, with equal grace that grow;O, fair ideas! we write your names across our banners fold,For you the sluggards brain is fire, for you the coward bold;O, daughter of the bleeding past! O, hope the prophets saw!God give us Law in Liberty, and Liberty in Law! Amen to that! said Mr. Dunlap, almost solemnly. For such a hopedid Franklin labor and Washington fight and Jefferson struggle and Web-ster plead; for it did Adams legislate and Jackson stand firm and Grantbattle and Lincoln die. For it must you all, boys and girls, strive heroic-ally, patriotically, practically — if you would make America the resistless,law-abiding republic which is to be the futures glory and pride.

Only the important names are entered here. There are slight allusions to many persons and places in theliook which it has not been thought necessary to include in the Index, and the entries given generally referto an important mention (or illustration) of the subject. When the treatment of a subject occupies a num-ber of pages the reference is to the first page only. Adams, Abigail, 24. Adams,-Charles Francis, 17. Adams, John, 17. Adams, John Quincy, 17, 218.
