Burlingame and Sumner joined in fame and defense of liberty
A letter to the Chicago Tribune recalls Anson Burlingame as a devoted friend of Charles Sumner. It traces Burlingame’s life from New Berlin New York to Harvard, his congressional service, and his famous 1856 speech defending free speech against the slave power. It notes the Burlingame Brooks duel episode, Burlingame’s later diplomatic career in Austria and China, and praises their shared legacy and burial in Mount Auburn with Massachusetts' reverence.
