lOne HundredandForty-TwoYearsI of Laborand Strugglei THE American people fought their first$ battles for liberty and the rights of selfMi$ government one hundred and forty - twoi years ago.
_ ~ tj[At that t ime, and for many years thereafter,\ ~ their realization of their nahonal aspirations and of~ the goal toward which they were really striving
was vague and indistinct. But step by s tep theystruggled onward and upward towarda light whichglew clearer as their eyes and minds slowly openedto its significance. Today. as a result of their .Iruggles and their sacrifices, we possess and enjoy ourpriceless American institutions.
