Book Description
Excerpt from Birthday Addresses at the Montauk Club of Brooklyn, 1892 to 1899 Chairman and Gentlemen: I should be the most insensible of men if I did not deeply appreciate the great compliment which you pay me. While the occasion makes my heart beat happily and arouses an honest pride, it presents no subject for a speech. This is not a gathering of political friends, martyrizing themselves to become a medium by which the orator can get his views before the country. It is not a collection of reformers, ambitious to have the speaker sit down because each one in the audience thinks he could improve the subject much better than the man on his feet. It is not a convention to promote principles, float policies or fresco men. Gentlemen of all political parties, of all religious creeds, of all professions and business pursuits are gathered in this room. That they meet to greet me is a distinguished honor; that the occasion is my birthday and decorates that natal hour with choicer flowers than ever have enshrined it before, this celebration, called for no public purpose or patriotic event or public man, is a tribute to the resources of friendship and the expansive properties of club life. The twenty-third day of April is, of course, one of the most important in the calendar. On it St. George was born; also Shakespere and myself.
