Memorial Day Sermon on Blood and Patriotism
A Memorial Day address honors sacrifice of soldiers from Schmidt to McKay of Uganda and the Union in the Civil War. It links blood shed by soldiers for freedom, religion, and progress to national prosperity and calls for a patriotism deeper than sentiment. It recalls a 1869 Boston Peace Jubilee with Handel, Haydn, and Parepa Rores as the crowd joins in the Star Spangled Banner.
