Lot 330 | Offering sentiments for Concord's Independence Day celebration
John Quincy ADAMS (1767-1848). Autograph letter signed ("J. Q. Adams") as Congressman, to Messrs. Charles P. Curtis, Samuel A. Eliot, et al. (Committee of Arrangements for the Whig Celebration for the 4th of July), Washington, 30 June 1834.

One page, 252 x 201mm, laid into a 309 x 247mm sheet (soiled at top right margin).

Adams offers a stirring patriotic sentiment for Concord's 1834 Independence Day celebration. Adams must decline the "obliging invitation to dinner on the Commons at the approaching celebration of our National Anniversary." He regrets his inability to attend, but as compensation "I enclose a Sentiment, which if you deem it suitable to the occasion, is at your disposal, if otherwise to be withheld at your discretion." It reads: "Concord: The Scene of the first blood shed for Independence and the Seal of the last Bond that can secure its possession forever."
