"My friends, no one, not in my situation, can
appreciate my feeling of sadness at this parting. To this place, and the
kindness of these people, I owe everything. Here I have lived a quarter of a
century, and have passed from a young to an old man. Here my children have
been born, and one is buried. I now leave, not knowing when, or whether
ever, I may return, with a task before me greater than that which rested
upon Washington. Without the assistance of the Divine Being who ever
attended him, I cannot succeed. With that assistance I cannot fail. Trusting
in Him who can go with me, and remain with you, and be everywhere for good,
let us confidently hope that all will yet be well. To His care commending
you, as I hope in your prayers you will commend me, I bid you an
affectionate farewell." (February 11, 1861)
"Peace does not appear so distant as it did. I hope it
will come soon, and come to stay; and so come as to be worth the keeping in
all future time." (August 26, 1863)
