#JMo on the Marquis de Lafayette, on the eve of his 1824 visit to DC: In August last he arrived at New York, where he was received with the warmth of affection and gratitude to which his very important and disinterested services and sacrifices in our Revolutionary struggle so eminently entitled him... It is natural that we should all take a deep interest in his future welfare, as we do. His high claims on our Union are felt, and the sentiment universal that they should be met in a generous spirit. (From his annual message to Congress, 7 December 1824.)
