I have a question ready....Born in a log house, this N.E. author was descended from the Mayflower Pilgrims. He helped found the Republican Party and was a staunch supporter of President Lincoln. Who is the author?
Meg wrote: "William Cullen Bryant?"Yes! You are correct, Meg!!! Did you know that Bryant died of a concussion when he fell down a flight of stairs after delivering a speech? He became dizzy from standing in the sun and hit his head when he fell. William Cullen Bryant was such a staunch supporter of Lincoln that he actually introduced Abe when he gave his "Cooper Union Speech."
SEE, MEG?!?!?!! π³π³π³

So do I! He was brilliant!
I have always loved this comment made by President John F. Kennedy:Kennedy'sΒ Remarks at a Dinner Honoring Nobel Prize Winners of the Western Hemisphere~"I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered together at the White House, with the possible exception of whenΒ Thomas JeffersonΒ dined alone."
That pretty much sums up Thomas Jefferson, in my opinion!
