CHAIRMAN AND GENTLEMEN:--In listening to the kind words andstill more in hearing the name of the gentleman who was kind enough topropose the toast to which I am replying,... I cannot help recalling thewords of one of your English poets:-- "Oh, for the touch of a vanished hand, And the sound of a voice that is still!" I was honored with the acquaintance, in some sort, I may say, with thefriendship of the father of the gentleman who proposed my name, andbefore saying anything further you will allow me to remark that mycountrymen are always ready to recognize the hereditary claims whenbased upon hereditary merit.
