Gratitude and memory in postwar politics
A 1872 Harrisburg Telegraph column argues gratitude to heroes like Washington and the Union army, condemning those who would erase the past. It condemns forgetting the Civil War’s sacrifices, praises Geary and Hartranft, and attacks Greeley and the Liberal movement while noting Pennsylvania’s partisan loyalties and public notices.
