Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Memorials of Daniel Webster, Vol. 1: From the New York Daily Times The Personal Memorials which compose so large a portion of these volumes, are from the pen of Gen. S. P. Lyman, whose intimate and confidential relations with Mr. Webster afford a sufficient guarantee for their authenticity. They are believed by the publishers to embrace a more copious collection of original and interesting memoranda, concerning the life and character of the great Statesman whose recent death has created so deep a sense of bereavement throughout the country, than has hitherto been given to the world. Some of these papers appeared some years since in the Commercial Advertiser and the Courier & Enquirer; and were revised and greatly extended for the Daily Times, from which they are now reprinted under the author's supervision.
